Start the Prep Now With The Barrett Team
You’ve been thinking about it, and 2026 might be the year you make a move. Maybe you’re upsizing, downsizing, or simply ready for a change. Whatever the reason, getting your home ready now can make all the difference when it’s time to sell.
If you plan to list next spring, the smartest move you can make is to start preparing today. A strong sale begins months before, in the quiet details that make your home stand out from every other one in Redding. It doesn’t begin when the "For Sale" sign goes up.
Why Timing Matters
The market in Redding is competitive, and buyers are paying close attention to quality. Homes that feel cared for, the ones with updated fixtures, fresh paint, and simple touch-ups, are the ones that attract attention and stronger offers.
By starting early, you’ll have time to plan projects, hire trusted contractors, and complete upgrades at your own pace. You’ll also avoid the stress that comes when everyone else is trying to get their home ready at the same time.
When spring comes around, your home will be ready to shine.
