Tidy up your home’s exterior
Architectural features of your outdoor home are another aspect not to overlook with winter curb appeal. Roofing shingles, vinyl or wood siding, and discolored brick can turn off potential buyers immediately. Look to pressure washing these portions of your home as often as possible to remove dirt and grime. Downspouts and gutters should be free from signs of wear and consider replacing pieces of gutters or downspouts if necessary. Ensure windows and doors are in working order and seal cracks with caulking to ensure air doesn’t leak in or out your home. Remember, some areas of curb appeal also involve maintenance, not just what a buyer can see with their eyes. Source: TheSpruce
Get a holiday doormat
Even if you already have a distinctive doormat, celebrate this season in every way possible by adding a themed outdoor mat to your landing. You’ll find many holiday welcome mat designs, patterns and colors, but hurry — the best of them sell out quickly. Source: Zillow
Illuminate the driveway
If your home is set back from the street, seeing it in the evening may be a challenge without a little extra help. Add a few driveway lights — on the ground level if you get no snow or up higher on posts if you do — to remedy the problem. Welcoming lights leading the way to your door will beckon warmly from the road, showing visitors the way. Source: Houzz
Mailbox makeover
Winter is the perfect time to take on this quick and easy painting project: Give your mailbox a makeover with a fresh coat of brightly colored paint. Spray paint won’t adhere to a cold surface, so be sure to bring the mailbox indoors to a warm and well-ventilated garage or workshop to paint. Source: BobVila
