The success of selling a house is largely dependent upon the house's appearance. It seems that a large portion of the buying decision is influenced my emotion. Aesthetics, or the beauty of things around can affect your emotions. In this article, we'll go over some of the top aesthetic mistakes sellers in the Fremont California Use this so you can avoid making these mistakes and get a higher price when you sell your house.

Mistake #1 - A common mistake which makes your home less attractive is the type of lighting that a buyer will see it in. Bright and inviting, a naturaly lit house with bright light seems to draw you in. Houses that are dark seem to be much more gloomy.

Pull back all the curtains after opening all the windows. You should consider adding additional lighting in your house if the present lighting is inadequate.

The subtle taste of how your house smells has a big impact on the buyer.

Mistake #2 - Lack of Attention to Scent Although it's pleasant to subtly lend fragrance to the home, at all costs avoid strong overpowering smells.

Aroma's that remind the buyer of the current occupant are not welcome. Before showing the house,it could go a long way to use some soft air fresheners.

Mistake #3 - Poor Exterior First Impression,

Your home's interior isn't the sole location that should be of concern. On the exterior, both the paint and yard play an important factor in the buyer's decision making process.

Your buyer will get a first impression from viewing the exterior of your home.

Perhaps you have a teenager who's painted his walls orange.

Mistake #4 - Strange Colors Pink may be your forte and it may look good with the paintings you own. However, for the buyer the colors may or may not suit them.

Why assume the chance? Don't forget to paint your walls a neutral color, before you show your home.

Make sure you attend to any needed repairs, such as, applying WD-40 to noisy hinges. If you are having issues with major utilities be sure to have those problems resolved first. In the event that kitchen cupboards or counters are marred or outdated, replacing them is likely to be needed.

Tiles need to be completely cleaned of grime and dirt. Often times it could even pay to replace old windows.
