As the year draws to a close some condo owners are turning their thoughts to putting their house on the market next spring. If you are one of those condo owners, now is a good time to have someone take an unbiased look at your home. Ask an agent, a friend or neighbor. Or do it yourself. Begin with the exterior. Curb appeal is most important, first impressions are lasting and it will pay off to make a good impression on the potential buyer. Take a look at the entrance, the stairs, the elevator, the front door. Is the entrance being maintained? If things are not as they should be then you aught to consider having a chat with those responsible for the upkeep. If door mats are allowed in the hallway, get a new one. Is the door chipped and in need of paint? A coat of paint or a new door will make a world of difference. Discard the faded wreath and buy a seasonal door decoration.
