When the weather gets wintry, homeowners and listing agents should be mindful to keep the driveway and walkways clear of snow and ice. Not only is it courteous, it sets a great first impression of the home. The potential buyers will feel positive about the owners and their willingness to care for the property.
Sellers and listing agents should not be lulled into thinking no one will show the property during winter events. It will definitely be slower than typical, but many agents including me, will and often do show property in the snow. It is always positive to see a properly cleared home during these weather conditions.
A cleared walkway is inviting and adds tot he buyer's positive first impressions of the house. Locally we only have a few winter events each year but I can say I have sold properties many times where the client viewed the home on a day with snow cover. You should always be thinking of ways to make your home as warm and inviting as possible. Psychologically it can and will help your home stand out among the rest.
