Preparing Your Home for the Market 准备你的家，让市场

Your prospective buyers will be scrutinizing your home; has it been taken care of or neglected?  Will there be expensive repairs or are they hiding something?  Taking the time to clean up and make repairs will repay you with confident buyers anxious to make an offer on a home that has been properly taken care of.你的准买家将被审议您家;已经得到照顾或忽视？会有昂贵的修理或他们隐藏的东西呢？抽出时间来清理，并进行修复会报答你的信心与买家急于作出任何要约一个家表示，已得到了妥善的照顾。

Look around for loose doors (buyers will open them), squeaky hinges and leaky taps.  Clean out closets and garages and wash walls.  You might decide that a fresh coat of paint would do well in improving the appearance – it often does.  If you have dark or brightly colored walls, paint them a neutral tone.  It will lighten the look and have a broader appeal to prospective buyers.环顾四周，为松门（买家将公开他们） ， squeaky铰链和漏泄水龙头。清理壁橱和车库及清洗墙壁，你可能决定一个新鲜的外壳的涂料会做的很好，在改善外观-它常常不，如果你有深色或鲜艳的墙壁，油漆，他们轻声，这将减轻企业的面貌有一个更广泛的呼吁，向准买家。

This is also not the time to start a large renovation.  Many times buyers are looking to put their own stamp on a home.  A quick renovation may actually devalue your home in your prospects eyes.  Freshening up your home does not require expensive materials either, but shoddy workmanship will cost you so keep the jobs simple.这也是没有的时候，开始大翻修。多次买家正在寻找把他们自己的邮票上的家。快速翻新，实际上可能贬值，你的家在你的前景眼睛是雪亮的。保鲜你的家并不需要昂贵的材料要么，但伪劣手艺，将成本，使你保持工作简单。

You might also consider removing items that might be offensive or inappropriate (check the posters in your teenager’s room).  Try to put away excessive amounts of books and knickknacks for a cleaner look.您也可能考虑取消的项目中有可能有攻击性或不适当的（检查海报，在你少年的房间） 。尝试以远离过量的书籍和knickknacks营造一个更清洁的期待。

Removing family photos is a good idea.  Remember, this is only temporary, but you want as many prospects as possible to envision themselves living in the home.  That means they need to SEE the home and not become too distracted by unusual or cluttered décor.除去家庭照片是一个好主意。记住，这只是暂时的，但你要多前景，尽可能设想自己住在家里，这意味着他们需要看到在家中休息，不要变得太分心，不寻常或杂乱装饰。

Unless you are very knowledgeable on the subject hire a home inspector to check out your home for any defects.  Not only will this alert you to potential problems, but will be good to show prospects who are concerned about structural defects.  They will still have their own inspector check the home, but at least you will be prepared for what they will find.除非你是非常有见识就此事聘请首页督察检查你的家，有任何损坏。这不仅会提醒您注意潜在的问题，但将有很好的表现出的前景，有人关心的结构性缺陷，他们会仍然有其自己的督察检查主页，但你至少会准备什么，他们会发现。

If there are problems such as roofing, electrical, foundation or other expensive projects, determine the cost of the repair compared to the value of your home without it being done.  Will the problem put buyers off?  Or can you adjust your asking price to reflect the work that needs to be done?如果有问题，如屋面防水，电气，基金会或其他昂贵的项目，确定生产成本，对维修比较的价值你家没有它正在做。将问题付诸表决，买家小康，还是你能调整你的要价，以反映工作需要做？

Have some estimates made for the cost of repair.  Even if you decide not to do the repairs you will be able to offer these as proof for the purchasers.  If the purchaser tries to bargain by claiming the job is an expensive and troublesome one you can show the quotes you’ve already obtained.有一些人估计，为维修费用，即使你决定不这样做修理，你将能够提供这些作为证据，为买家，如果买家试图讨价还价，声称这项工作是一项昂贵的麻烦之一，你可以显示行情您已经获得的。

Cleaning up 清理

If you are selling and showing your home yourself you may receive a call (or knock on the door) at any time from interested buyers requesting to take a look.如果你是销售和展示你的主页，你自己可以接听电话时（或敲门） ，在任何时间，由有兴趣的买家的要求，采取一看。

You do not need to create a show home – your buyers know it is being lived in – but they do not need to see the laundry in a pile or wade through cluttered rooms.  Try to maintain the home by keeping dishes washed and beds made as well as a clean bathroom and tidy living area.你不需要创建一个显示首页-您的买家知道，它是自住-但他们并不需要看到洗衣房，在一堆或韦德透过凌乱的房间。尝试，以保持自己在家中饲养菜洗净，并取得了病床作为以及作为清洁浴室和整洁的居住面积。

If they show up at a really bad time suggest they make an appointment.如果他们显示了在一个真正的坏的时候建议他们作出任命。 You can state this on the sign if necessary.你可以说明这一点标志，如果必要的。

You may realize that when you move you will need to get rid of a lot of accumulated stuff.  Now is the time.  Old clothing, broken items you will not likely repair, excess furniture – have a garage sale or take them to secondhand shop.  Not only will this improve the look of your home but it will make moving easier.你可知道，当你搬入您将需要摆脱了很多东西，积累了，现在是时候了。旧衣物，破碎的物品，你将可能不会修理，超额家具-有一个车库出售或接送他们到二手店。这不仅会改善看看你的家，但它将使移动更为容易。

Consider lightening the load of your closets so they will look more spacious.  Store excess or out of season clothing in boxes in another area of the home.  Add a few empty hangers for the visual effect of having lots of room and try to add a light (even a battery operated one) to the inside of the closet.考虑减轻负荷，你的壁橱，所以他们会显得更加宽敞。储存过量或出于季节的服装在盒中另一个值得注意的地方，家中。补充几句空洞的架子，让视觉效果有很多房间，并尝试添加轻（连电池） ，向里面的壁橱里。

If you have a yard you will have to clear it of debris, keep it mowed and do upkeep to the garden.  Check the outside of your house for needed repairs such as missing shingles and loose boards or stones in traffic areas such as the patio, balcony or stairs.  Consider some minor additions of shrubs or plants to improve the ‘curb appeal’.如果你有一个院子，你要清楚它的碎片，继续mowed做保养，以花园。退房外界你的房子需要维修，如失踪的带状疱疹和松散板或石头，交通等领域的天井，阳台或楼梯。考虑到一些轻微的增补的灌木或植物，以改善'遏止上诉' 。

Replace or repair torn screens and dim or burnt out bulbs.  Make sure that your house number is visible even on a dark evening or buyers won’t be able to take note of the address or find your house for an appointment in the evening.更换或修理蹂躏的屏幕和暗淡或被烧出灯泡。确保你的门牌号码是可见的，甚至对一个黑暗的晚上或买家将不能够注意到该地址或找到你的房子安排预约，在傍晚。

Do all you can to keep your home and yard looking well cared for.  You and your family are no doubt very busy, but the extra attention is very important.  First impressions count.尽一切可能让您在家中院子寻找很好的照顾，你和你的家人，毫无疑问，很繁忙，但额外的重视是很重要的：第一印象计数。
