Seasonal curb appeal

I purchased the Mathews Family Halloween pumpkins today with my kids and it reminded me to post about some great staging advice as we approach the Fall season. If your house is on the market, limit the amount of seasonal decor you have outside. For October and November, a couple of welcoming pots of mums on the front porch are always appropriate! I always use the rule of thumb that if I'm asking myself if something is "too much", it probably is. Put out your jack'o'lanterns but remember to clean them up as they start to rot and keep that front porch swept, the yard raked, and the gutters cleaned out! Keep your home looking as easy to maintain as possible by staying on top of those season chores!
