What Can I Do Now to Get My Home Ready to Sell in the Spring?
If selling your home in the spring or early summer is on your radar—even loosely—you may be wondering what you should be doing right now.
The short answer: it’s a great time to start the conversation.
Whether you’re just beginning to think about selling or already have a spring timeline in mind, it’s never too early to reach out—and never too late.
One of Teresa’s clients put it this way: “Having Teresa as our partner through the process made it easy—and actually fun.”
At Kenney & Co., we’re already working with homeowners planning spring and summer moves, helping them think through preparation and timing in a calm, low-pressure way. Starting early isn’t about rushing—it’s about clarity. We’re also helping clients who are working with much tighter timelines and need clear, efficient guidance right away.
Start With Strategy (Not a Long To-Do List)
Before tackling projects, it’s important to understand what actually matters to today’s buyers—and what doesn’t.
Buyer expectations vary by neighborhood, price point, and home style. With the right guidance, many sellers discover they can skip unnecessary updates, focus on a few high-impact items, and avoid spending time or money where it won’t pay off.
A Thoughtful Walk-Through Goes a Long Way
An early walk-through allows us to:
Flag small fixes that make a strong impression
Identify items worth addressing sooner rather than later
Build a realistic prep timeline that fits your life
The goal isn’t to do more—it’s to do the right things.
Local Insight = Smarter Decisions
Generic online advice only goes so far. What truly helps sellers is understanding how buyer expectations differ from one neighborhood to the next—and which improvements consistently make a difference.
Because we’re active in the Central Ohio market every day, we help sellers focus on what adds value now, not what sounded like a good idea five years ago.
As one of Teresa’s clients shared:
“Her knowledge about the general market and specific neighborhoods made the entire process smooth, from start to finish.”
Whenever You’re Ready, We’re Here
Some sellers like the breathing room that comes with starting early. Others don’t reach out until spring is already in full swing. Both are completely fine.
If a spring or summer sale is even a possibility, now is a great time to connect. And if that call comes later, we’ll be ready then too. Let’s connect.
