7 Things that Will Stop Your House From Selling

Kerina Jessamine: Real Estate Agent in Killeen, TX

Poor curb appeal

Buyers won't even go inside if the outside of the house looks unappealing. So clean up your front yard by tidying plants and pulling up weeds. Make sure the outside of your home looks well cared-for by painting the trim, mowing the lawn and placing attractive potted plants by the door.

Unpleasant odors

You may not even notice bad odors, but buyers surely will. Smoking and pets are the prime causes, so smoke outside while you are selling your house and consider what to do with your animals. Allow the house to air out thoroughly before viewings - don't just try to mask the odor with another scent.

Loud and scary pets

Apart from the odor of some animals, a big dog or noisy bird can be off-putting to some buyers. So keep your dog away when you have viewings so your potential buyers aren't distracted or, worse, scared.

Signs of damp

Problems with damp are a big turn-off to many buyers. Make sure your basement doesn't smell damp and there are no signs of damp on the walls. It's much better to fix problems now than wait until buyers point them out to you.

Dirt and grime

Although dirt is usually only cosmetic, it deters buyers, who will start to think the house isn't well cared for. So make sure your kitchen and bathroom, in particular, are clean.

Bad décor

Although your home's décor shouldn't matter, to many buyers it does. That's because many want a house they can move into right away. So replace any tired or out-of-date carpets or wallpapers with a more neutral, modern scheme.

Wrong price

If your house it too expensive compared to similar properties on the market, you'll turn away viewers. So take your agent's advice when it comes to setting a price for your home.

5 Killeen Furniture Stores to Furnish Your Fort Hood Home

Mary Ann Daniell, Realtor Fort Hood Texas Real Estate Services: Real Estate Agent in Fort Hood, TX

Furnish your homeIf you are buying a house at Fort Hood or even looking at houses for rent at Fort Hood, you may need some furniture fairly quickly. I'm hearing that many of you are landing here with only a few days to set up your house before you head out to Ft. Polk or National Training Center at Fort Irwin and you've got to find a rental or get a house under contract before you hit the road for training prior to deployment.

If you are in a hurry when you arrive, here are five places to shop for furniture. Remember, if you pay cash, ask for a discount, and don't be afraid to try to negotiate with the stores. It's sort of like real estate.. if you don't ask for something in negotiations, you give up your chance for a better deal!
