“Curb appeal sells 49% of all houses.” – NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS”
“ A good first appearance of a home can add 5% to 10% to the value of the home.” – JOHN AUST, PRESIDENT, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REAL ESTATE APPRAISERS
It’s true you only get one chance to make a first impression when showing a home. The best way to improve your odds for a fast sale in the market is to make sure your presentation is perfect. Pressure washing your home not only brings Curb appeal but also adds value to the final sales price of the home! Curb appeal matters and it has a huge impact on the resale potential of your home. Let me give you an example, you are selling a 2k square foot home, market price is $250k, it’s has organic growth all over the home and the driveway is extremely discolored and dirty. Net results for a pressure washing job can bring back an Return on Investment of 1400%(in this example, using the typical cost of a cleaning job), so instead of selling for $250k you can list for $265k, this is a proven in the real-estate and house flipping market. CLEAN SELLS, PERIOD!!!
Taking the time to pressure wash your home can help increase the number of prospective buyers. After all, if you drove by a home for sale that had dirty siding, an algae covered sidewalk and a mud-caked fence, would you stop and tour the open house? Probably not. However, a home that looks like it has fresh paint, a clean driveway, and well-maintained fencing will draw in more traffic.
Bottom line - A good, thorough, professional pressure washing of your home before you sell it will add to its curb appeal and well-maintained appearance, helping you sell your home faster.
