Leslie's August 2019 Blog

Every season in Sarasota is Beach season, and we all know that you don't have to do ANYTHING when you go to the beach, but did you know there is a lot more going on here these days than just the beautiful white powdery sands of Siesta Key Beach, or Anna Maria Island Beach, or Coquina Beach, or Lido Beach? OK, you get the picture!!

Watching the sun dip into the Gulf of Mexico this time of year is even more spectacular. The fiery red-orange sun seems to disappear in just seconds.

The landscape around Sarasota is definitely changing as well. Not only are the Sandhill Cranes and their babies visible all around, but if you look up to the sky, not only in Lakewood Ranch and other communities in and around Sarasota, but downtown the construction cranes are visible as well. There are approximately 1500 condos and about 1,000 hotel rooms well on their way to being completed.

Siesta Key Beach

Don’t miss Sarasota in the summer time, the views are spectacular.

Until then – Enjoy !!!! Leslie


So now you are thinking –

“How do I get the most dollars out of my home when I sell?”

A Few Hints

Your mission is to make your home show like a model.

Declutter-Declutter-Declutter!!

The most important thing to remember is: once you decide to put your home on the market, it becomes a house and not your home – (you have to pack anyway, so why not get started early)

Look at your house though buyer’s eyes.

What do you see when you pull up to your house and park your car? Curb appeal is so important. You only get one chance to make a first impression.

Does the front of your home have an inviting and welcoming allure? Are your bushes and other plant life trimmed and tidy? Arrange a few pots of colorful plants and frame the entry way to invite your perspective buyer into their new home.

As you enter, are you greeted with a neutral fresh scent? You want to appeal to all the senses for greatest effect.

Is your paint color neutral so others can visualize their furniture in the house? As you walk from room to room is everything neat and tidy?

Are your kitchen counters clear? Empty every top shelf, every cabinet, every closet, and anyplace that has a top shelf leave empty. After all – you want to give the illusion of more than enough storage for anyone to need.

Hope these few little hints help you get on the right track.

Siesta Key Beach

As you think about putting your home on the market,
a few hints:

You never get a second chance to make a first impression!

Become your buyer – If you weren’t moving to Paradise, would you buy your home at the price you are asking?

What do you see when you pull up to your home?

Does the first impression say: Wow- this home looks pristine?

As they walk through your home, can your buyer envision each room for his or her purpose? Is there plenty of room for their belongings? Empty every top shelf ( do this in every cabinet and shelf in the house). You have to pack any way, this will give you a head start. Whether you are dreaming of downtown or dockside, water view or your favorite fairway, our commitment is to help you discover your ultimate lifestyle.
