Your home is a reflection of you and your family. The exterior of your home is the first impression Buyer’s have of your home. If the exterior of your home is in need of repair and maintenance then the Buyer’s will assume the interior is in the same condition. If Buyer’s will not come in to look at your home they certainly will not buy.
