Selling Tips For Properties With A Bad View By Randy Walker At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Sliding glass doors may seem like an obstacle when it comes to selling those “special” properties. You know the ones: they have sliders that look directly into a neighboring unit, face a parking lot, common area or worse.

Show the property with the blinds closed and the room will seem dark, leave the blinds open and you can almost feel the excitement leave the buyers faces as they look through that glass wall. Being an enterprising agent, you try angling the blinds to give the room as much light as possible while minimizing the immediate impact of the view and hope for the best. You know eventually they all sell, but often with a selling price thousands of dollars less than the same unit with a better view.

A $100 alternative, to a reduced selling price, is decorating those glass doors with an adhesive-free etched glass film called Wallpaper For Windows. ( www.wallpaperforwindows.com ) . This decorative window film will turn the negative into a positive by transforming that clear glass wall into expensive-looking custom glass doors that conceal the undesirable view. With open blinds the room is energized with natural light from beautiful etched glass doors and the importance of the view is minimized.

Buyers should be told that the doors are decorated and the Wallpaper For Windows film can be left on or removed. There is an advantage to decorating the glass doors instead of leaving them plain: the room is always presented with the best lighting and the view is always obscured. Once buyers know there is a solution to the undesirable view, the issue will be minimized. (The film is adhesive-free and can be removed in seconds; there are no removal issues.)

The important thing to remember is that it must be an adhesive-free static-cling film like Wallpaper For Windows!™. The static cling film installation is easy and has beautiful results. Adhesive-backed films are difficult to remove and not recommended for this situation. (Also beware of window films that have to be seamed together to cover a piece of glass. When the windows are washed, the seams catch some of the dirt, after a few washings the seams start becoming black lines instead of invisible.)

For the seller, Wallpaper For Windows is an inexpensive solution to maintain the desired selling price. For the realtor, with the view replaced by decorative glass doors, the unit will sell faster and commissions will not be reduced.
