Tips for Selling Your Home

Remove Clutter From Your Home

When you own a home, it's easy to accumulate more stuff than you need. Clutter takes up space, and space is what sells. Make your home look bigger and more desirable by editing down to just the basics. Buyers want and need to see the full potential of your house to picture themselves in it, but that can be difficult to do when it is covered up in your things. The less clutter you have in a space, the bigger it will look and the more appealing it will be to buyers. Also, make sure you have proper lighting. It will always make a home feel warmer and inviting. Changing light bulbs when staging a home can be like giving a room a makeover and freshen up a living space.

Clean, Repair and Paint Walls

This is a great time to spruce up your walls and give your home a fresh look. Use a foam eraser pad and go room to room. Remove fingerprints and any scuffs from walls. Patch and spackle any holes you may find. You may also need to do some paint touch-ups if you notice areas where previously applied paint has chipped. If needed, give your walls a fresh coat of paint.

Make Your Home Squeaky Clean

Clean like you've never cleaned before! You want every square inch to shine, from the baseboards to the corners of your ceilings and everywhere in between. A squeaky clean home suggests to buyers that you took good care of the property, a notion that extends beyond the kitchen countertops to the entire house.

Use Neutral Colors

When you're staging your home to sell, one of the very best things you can do is use neutral colors such as gray, white, and taupe. Bold colors can distract from a room's assets. Buyers might not be able to visualize their dream home if it's excessively decorated.

Boost Curb Appeal

Make a good first impression! The first thing a buyer is going to see when they walk up to your house is the front entrance, so you want it to make a strong positive impression. To increase your curb appeal, trim your shrubs and trees, weed and lay down fresh mulch. Add a plant or two, add a new welcome mat. You'll be surprised by how far these simple tasks can get you!
