Curb Appeal Begins Online!

Curb Appeal begins Online! Yes we said - online.

According to the National Association of REALTORS 88% of home buyers begin their property search online.  The very first impression that most buyers get is what is portrayed in the exterior photograph of your property.

It's April in Maine! Now is the time of year to spruce up your curb appeal for our busy Spring and Summer markets. Get your home photo ready!

Curb Appeal: Clean up the doorways

Your home's front entry is the center of its curb appeal! Make a statement by giving your front door a coating of new paint or stain. Clean off and polish your metal fixtures such as door knobs, hinges and street numbers. Remeber your entry sets the standard of what to expect on the interior.  Dress it up with a seasonal wreath, flowers of the season or another statement that reflects the overall style and design of your home.

Happy Birthday to all of Jaret & Cohn Real Estate's agents with April Birth dates!

Wishing Leonard Maxwell, Charles Brawn, Carole K. Wright, Melissa Maker, Joanna Pinkham, Tracie Pooley-StClair and Janet Gleeson  a very happy birthday!
