When going to list your Milford home you want it be like a model home if you can. You want to get top dollar for your home. Here is a list of 20 easy and low cost tips to help sell your piece of Milford real estate. 
These are just suggestions on what to do.  90% of today's home buyers want a move in ready house. The more your Milford home is updated and in good shape the more attention and offers you will get from Metro Detroit home buyers.  I hope this list of home selling tips help you. 
1.)   Trim trees and shrub so they don't block windows and cut down on light.  Well manicured shrubs help with your curb appeal. 
2.)   Put up sheers, and get rid of heavy drapes that block the sunlight.  Opening shades and drapes to let the sun shine warm and brighten rooms
3.)   Pick up a new doormat at Walmart, Meijers, or KMart.
4.)   Paint the front door in an accent color.  A glossy, cheerful color that compliments the exterior color will also add to curb appeal.
5.)   Pick up a pot of bright flowers or plant annuals (or a small evergreen in winter) on your porch.
6.)   Power wash is one of the cheapest ways to make your house sparkle.  Do the vinyl or aluminum siding, walkways, and driveway.  If your aluminum siding is in bad shape you can paint the siding. 
7.)   Wash the windows so the light comes in.
8.)   Remove stains from the carpets.  Do a heavy duty cleaning of the floors, counters, sinks, baths, tile and grout. 
9.)   Use the largest watt light bulbs possible to brighten up your Milford home even more.
10.) Cut, and trim the Lawn.  Add mulch to the flower beds.  Trim up low lying trees so you can see your home better.

11.) DO NOT OVER DO THIS.  Put out potpourri or burn a scented candle
12.) Buy new accent pillows for the sofa.
13.) Eliminating house odors.. Cleaning the carpets or putting on a fresh coat of paint will cover and eliminate some of the smell.  Pet odors will be a major negative and will reduce the amount you will get for your piece of Milford real estate
14.) A new accent house plant will give an empty corner a homey feel. 
15.) Replace or tighten broken door handles, drawer pulls, light switches and electrical plates
16.) Make a centerpiece for your table with fruit or artificial flowers
17.) Fix any drips or odd noises that buyers will notice
18.) Oil or Lubricate any squeaky door hinges and locks
