Winter evening at a welcoming home entrance

Selling in winter can shine if the home feels safe, warm, and low-maintenance.

Use this quick list before photos + showings:

• HVAC serviced + fresh filter; set a comfy, consistent temp
• Weatherstrip/caulk drafts; check attic air leaks/insulation ENERGY STAR+1
• Clean gutters, confirm roof looks solid, trim branches
• Safety: test smoke/CO; consider a radon test for buyer confidence US EPA+1
• Walkways: shovel plan, ice melt, good lighting; make entry easy (MoDOT winter
safety mindset) Missouri Department of Transportation
• Stage “cozy”: lamps on, fresh mats, neutral throws
