If you will be placing your home on the market for sale, remember that your garage is an important part of your home. Buyers will want to see it and it should be an appealing part of your home.
While your home is on the market for sale, do not use your garage to store packing boxes, they belong in a storage area.
Items that need to be in the garage, like your children’s bicycles, need to be out of the way and neatly stored in a rack or hung from hooks.
Make sure any exposed electrical wiring is ‘to code’ and secured.
Clean the windows, many times garage windows are missed.
Do not store gasoline powered mowers etc. or gasoline in cans in the garage.
Make sure the garage ‘smells good’, this only takes a few air freshener’s.
Remove any temporary shelving and any permanent shelving that is of poor quality.
Get rid of ‘old’ work benches (they also belong in the storage if you are taking them with you.
Does the inside of your garage need a new coat of paint?
Are all the light’s working?
Your garage should be appealing to allow your buyers to be creative!
