Honey, Meet the Neighbors

|August 9, 2014|Uncategorized|

by Osman Parvez


I took clients to see a few Boulder properties this afternoon.   This was the view from the front yard of one of the houses we saw.  

Guess what sort of impression this made?



Of course, you can’t control your neighbors but if you’re trying to sell a house, this sort of stuff is detrimental.   If it were my $1M+ listing … I’d offer to share the cost with neighbor for getting this painted.   Remember, there is no such thing as a second first impression.
