Sell your home faster with these simple changes

Sell your home faster with these simple changes

How changing simple things like paint and curtains can help you sell your home faster

When homeowners decide to put their houses on the market, they often panic at the thought of all the costly renovations and major changes that need to be made in order for their home to sell. While it is true, sometimes homes do need some renovating– I’m here to tell you from experience that it is actually the most simple changes that will allow you to sell your home faster! When it comes to curtains, for example, it can be more beneficial to take them away completely than it is to change them up!

Small updates can mean BIG dollars!

I had a client who had their home on the market for 45 days with NO offers. The home was beautiful, in great shape, and in an ideal location. We realized that it was the personal decorative touches they had throughout the home that may be turning some buyers away.

We simplified the decor–specifically the window dressings and paint, and the home immediately got multiple offers and sold at listing price. Just look at the difference taking away the curtains and wallpaper made:

Before and afters:

Just because your decor is beautiful, doesn’t mean it’s for everyone. By taking away your own personal touches such as curtains, wallpaper and paint– you’re allowing potential buyers to let their imaginations run wild! While I show them around the home, they’re just dreaming of the decor and paint colors they can’t wait to fill their future home with. So remember, small updates can mean big dollars!

Now, let’s get your home SOLD!

7 Reasons to Buy a Home in Charlotte

Buy a Charlotte home in 2016 and immerse yourself in the unique, family (and dog) friendly culture of the Queen City!

May, 2016– Danielle Edwards is a Charlotte, NC Realtor with RE/MAX Executive, the number one RE/MAX in the Carolinas.

There’s a reason why it’s so rare to find a native Charlottean around here. Charlotte is a great place to move and there’s never been a better time to buy a home in Charlotte! Here’s why:

7. Affordability

For the high quality of life in the Queen City, Charlotte actually has a low cost of living among the top 40 metro areas in the nation. According to movingtocharlotteguide.com, Charlotte’s housing costs are 18 percent lower than the national average making 2016 the perfect year to buy a home in Charlotte!

6. Options

You can find bungalows galore near the city, or live in a modern uptown condo. You can live in the suburbs of Ballantyne or Matthews, or you can live on either Lake Wylie or Lake Norman. There is such a wide variety of homes in the Charlotte area, it’s impossible not to find a home that fits you and your family best.

5. The restaurant scene

The Charlotte restaurant scene is thriving more than ever. From the most delicious hotdogs you’ve ever had at Chili Man’s hotdog stand in the heart of uptown, to tapas at Good Food on Montford, you can’t miss out on Charlotte’s evolving foodie culture. If you buy a home in Charlotte, you’ll never grow sick of the restaurants that are authentic to the area.

4. The Panthers

2015 was a big year for the Panthers and the fans that have cheered them on since the beginning. Whether or not you’re a fan, the excitement and positive vibes floating around on game days make going out in Charlotte on a Sunday afternoon even more fun.

This photo says it all.

3. Fun for the whole family

You could try a new place or go on a new adventure every weekend in Charlotte and rarely do the same thing twice. Go on a Saturday morning hiking trip on Crowders Mountain, take the kids to Discovery Place downtown, or take the whole family to the Whitewater Center for more than just whitewater rafting. There’s a plethora of family friendly outdoor activities, scenic greenways, museums and sights to see all over the city.

2. Pet-friendly environment

Charlotte is home to 6 dog parks across the city. Almost every local brewery is pet friendly and chances are there will be tons of cute pups for your own four-legged friend to meet. Bring your dog to the Whitewater Center to enjoy a big lawn and live music. There’s even an annual doggie event called “Woofstock.”

7 Simple Ways to “Go Green” at Home

by

7 Simple Ways to “Go Green” at Home

“Go Green” in your Charlotte, NC home with these 7 tips.

April, 2016– Danielle Edwards is a Charlotte, NC Realtor with RE/MAX Executive, the number one RE/MAX in the Carolinas.

“Go Green” at home! Making subtle changes to your daily lifestyle at home can make a positive impact on the environment. You don’t have to purchase a hybrid car or start raising your own livestock to create a more environmentally-friendly home. Below are some ideas you might find helpful when deciding to “Go Green” in your Charlotte home.

 

7. Update the insulation in the house

Older homes (built before 1980) may not be constructed well for energy efficiency. According to energy.gov, adding insulation to a home will likely pay for itself within a few years due to the amount of energy it will save for Charlotte, NC homeowners like you. If completely updating the insulation throughout your home is not currently in your budget, you can always purchase thicker curtains, or even sun-blocking/thermal curtains to keep the house cooler during the summer.

6. Throw out pesticides

Most pesticide sprays come in aerosol cans which are bad for the environment– more importantly, the chemicals that exist within those cans aren’t good for you and your family. Prevent pests first by sealing up any exposed holes in the wall or cracks in the foundation. Be very careful not to leave behind any crumbs or sugary and sticky messes. In the event that you do find bugs inside of your home, try using one of these homemade organic pesticides.

Danielle Edwards RE/MAX Realtor Charlotte NC

5. Clean off dust bunnies from refrigerator coils

All of the dust that collects behind your refrigerator will cause it to have to work harder to keep cool. Every 6 months or so, scoot it out and clean off the dust that has accumulated to make sure your fridge isn’t using up more energy than necessary in your home.

4. Unplug small appliances

Appliances still use energy when they’re not turned on or not being used, just because they are plugged into the wall. You can save energy and even cut back on your power bill just by unplugging appliances like your toaster or coffee maker. Also, try unplugging lamps that don’t get used very often in guest bedrooms or formal living rooms.

Danielle Edwards Charlotte NC Realtor REMAX Executives

3. Brew smarter

Coffee drinker? Make sure your coffee was sustainably grown by drinking USDA Certified Organic coffee. If you prefer to drink coffee on the go, many Charlotte, NC coffee shops will offer discounts for customers who bring their own mug or thermos. Save money and save paper or plastic!

2. Ditch the dryer sheets

Did you know the chemicals in your dryer sheets are bad for your health? There are many home made alternatives to using Tide or Gain dryer sheets that may also save you money! Try this safe alternative instead.

7 Ways to Help Your Kids Adapt to a New Home

by

7 Ways to Help Your Kids Adapt to a New Home

Tips for encouraging the kids to love their new Charlotte home

March, 2016– Danielle Edwards is a Charlotte, NC Realtor with RE/MAX Executive, the number one RE/MAX in the Carolinas.

Many of my clients have had young children and worry about the effect that moving may have on them. In general, moving is a huge transition, especially when kids are moving from the only home they’ve ever known. I’ve put together some guidelines and tips on how as a parent, you can make the transition a little bit easier on the kids.

  1. When packing up your first home, make sure to leave the kid’s rooms and belongings in place as long as possible. Pack up their bedrooms and bathrooms last, so they won’t go without the rooms they are used to for very long.  If you’re hiring a moving company or using a moving truck, make sure the kids’ boxes can be easily accessed so you can unpack their belongings and bedrooms first in the new home.
  2. Turn the unpacking and decorating process into a game or fun activity for your children. Have the kids compete for who can unpack 5 boxes the fastest, or let them play their favorite music as loud as they want while the family unpacks together. Packing up and boxing the old house may seem like a chore to the kids, and that’s okay, as long as they associate unpacking the new house with fun and excitement.
  3. Before the big move, take the kids on a drive around their new neighborhood or town. Point out the unique things in the area that make it fun for kids. Try to get them excited about playtime at the local park or the neighborhood pool.
  4. Consider unpacking the TV first so the kids have a form of entertainment while you and the movers move the big furniture they can’t help with.
  5. 8720604364_2ebdc6df85_o
  6. Before moving in furniture and picking out rooms, let the kids explore the new house so they can become familiar with the space.
  7. Look up Facebook groups for parents in your neighborhood. See if your neighborhood is on nextdoor.com. Setting up playdates for your children or getting them involved in local extra-curricular activities will help keep them distracted from the negative aspects of the big change and also help them make new friends in the neighborhood.kids-835146_960_720
  8. Most of all, be patient with the kids as they adjust. Moving homes can be very hard and they may not appreciate the new house right away. Understand that it’s normal, and accept their feelings. Time heals all things, and they will grow to love their home eventually.

6 Tips for Relocating to Charlotte

6 Tips for Relocating to Charlotte

Everything from navigating through the city to Queen City culture, use this article as your resource guide for relocating to Charlotte

Whether you are packing up and relocating to Charlotte right away or you are just in the early stages of house shopping, this Charlotte-area Realtor Estate agent is here for you! My name is Danielle Edwards and I am a Charlotte, NC Realtor with RE/MAX Executive, the number one RE/MAX in the Carolinas.  Preparing to relocate is stressful enough. I’ve done some research on relocating to the Queen City… so you don’t have to!

Know your school districts.

Oftentimes, the best neighborhoods are near the best public schools. Charlotte is a huge city, and if you plan on staying in the same home as your children grow up, be sure you’re looking at neighborhoods in school districts with a great reputation before relocating to Charlotte. Check out our list of the top rated high schools in Charlotte, and what neighborhoods surround them.

Test-drive your commute.

Loop Study StonewallCharlotte is full of interstates. If you’re heading North on I-77 on the way to work, your 15 mile commute may take an hour. If you’re heading South at the same time, your ride will be smooth and traffic-free. The same is true for the inner and outer loops of I-485, I-85, and even smaller roads such as Highway 160. If you already have a job lined up in the area, take a ride during rush hour from your prospective neighborhoods to your job site. If you will be working in uptown Charlotte, make sure you’re comfortable with the commute before your first day. The random one-way roads uptown can be tricky if you’re not used to them.

Subscribe to the Charlotte Agenda.

This online publication is great for newcomers that are relocating to Charlotte. The writers highlight popular restaurants and neighborhoods, and keep readers up-to-date on what’s in the works for the Queen City. Once you get settled in, this will be a great resource in figuring out where to explore. You are sure to fall in love with the many beautiful sights and unique breweries, parks, boutiques, and other small businesses that Charlotte has to offer! They also list multiple job openings a day, for those of you who are still on the job hunt.

Relocating to Charlotte

Are you a workout fanatic? Purchase Class Pass.

This smartphone app is $79 per month. But, if you love working out it will be worth it. Charlotte is home to a large amount of local, family owned or private gyms. Maybe you are a yogi but don’t know which studio is best for you. The app lets you choose from almost ANY gym in Charlotte, view their schedule, and reserve a class. The only fee you pay is for the app itself. This means you have access to every gym in Charlotte until you find the one that’s right for you. Some of these gyms cost over $200 a month for a membership, so $79 is a great deal.

Know your neighborhoods.

It seems like Charlotte is home to a handful of “mini-towns.”You’ll hear all kinds of names for different areas here. The truth is, there are a ton of unique neighborhoods around the city and each one has it’s own character. While one area may be home to many college students, another may be home to many young professionals or families, so it’s important to get a good idea of what you can expect from each of these communities so you’ll be an expert before relocating to Charlotte! Some of these areas include: Elizabeth, South End, Lower South End, NoDa, South Park, Steele Creek, and Dilworth. To learn more about each neighborhood, check out this helpful website.
