When you\u2019re working to sell your house, sometimes the \u2018to-do\u2019 list can feel longer than the hands on the clock allow. Our brains are easily overwhelmed if we look at everything as a giant task. It\u2019s actually recommended that you tell yourself you only have to spend 5 minutes doing something and just get done what you can in that time. Getting started is half the battle, and once you do, you may find that you\u2019re finishing in no time. Some tiny tasks add curb appeal in only 5-20 minutes and can speed up your selling process.<\/p>\n
Many people only think about staging the inside of the house. If you\u2019d like to create a welcoming mood you can carefully place inviting seating in your outdoor spaces. Don\u2019t forget to add a pop of color via pillows and other outdoor items that can brighten the space.<\/p>\n
Laying down some beautiful wood mulch in any unplanted spaces in your landscape will freshen the look and naturally prevent weeds. It\u2019ll only take you 5 minutes or so to lay down some mulch. Your landscape will instantly look cleaner and controlled.<\/p>\n

Leaves and other garden debris like to take up residence on our patios, walkways and decks. Take a couple minutes to use a leaf blower and blow away the debris, or sweep\/rake it away. This small step will make a world of difference.<\/p>\n
Cobwebs and dust aren\u2019t the most exciting neighbors or houseguests. Take a moment to wipe down unsightly objects. Wipe down outdoor furniture, BBQ\u2019s and other kitchen equipment, railings, windows, and gutters.<\/p>\n
Adding plants to your porch is a great way to add color. You can create a container garden that will capture attention, drawing focus away from eyesores and redirecting toward features you\u2019d like to highlight. Greenery and color that are appropriate for the light that the space offers are an easy way to add some charm and brighten the mood.<\/p>\n
