It might seem that everyone is hibernating this winter, but home buyers are still out there in the colder months. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we have a few tips for making your listing stand out. First, this is not the time to save a few bucks on your heating bill. You want to create a feeling of welcoming warmth and you can’t do that with a chilly house. If the home is vacant, keep the heater on a timer so the property is warm during showing times. It’s even more important to make sure each room is well-lit during the darker winter months. Table and standing lamps are quick fixes for a dim room. To help prospective buyers look beyond winter’s snowy or brown lawn, and envision the property in warmer months, display photos of the house taken when things were green and blooming. Also, make a few flyers or a photo album and leave them out (and open) where buyers are sure to see them. Check out below to see what sold in Olde Orchard in January 2019:

Make sure the driveway, walkways and porch on your house are safe and free from snow and ice. Be sure to shovel your deck and patio so buyers can walk out and imagine enjoying them in warmer times.
