 I know it feels like Summer has just begun... actually, technically, summer didn’t begin until today… June 20th.

But, despite Summer just beginning... let's think ahead three to six months... especially (perhaps only) if you plan to sell your home this coming Fall or Winter.

If you will be -- or think you will be -- putting your house on the market this coming October, November, December, January or February -- this Public Service Announcement is for you!

PSA: Now is the perfect time to get a head start on one important detail: your exterior photos.

This time of year, your yard is likely looking its best. The grass is green, the trees are full, and plenty of landscaping is in full bloom. Come November, December, January, etc. -- those same scenes will be quite a bit less vibrant. 

Capturing your home’s exterior while everything is lush and colorful can make a big difference in the marketing of your home online.  Buyers often form their first impressions from exterior photos, and a bright, welcoming exterior can draw buyers in more than a fall or wintertime photo.  

So, if you're planning to sell your home soon (in the next 3 to 6 months) but not now... it can still be a good idea to capture exterior photos now or soon while the weather (and your yard) are still cooperating.

If you want to prepare for a Fall or Winter listing, let me know and I can work on scheduling exterior photos ASAP.
