When it comes time to sell your home, the most important thing to remember is that potential buyers need to be able to imagine themselves existing in the space you’re presenting to them. It’s hard to do that if you have a lot of your personal clutter and trash sitting around.
Reduce Clutter and Litter
Just because you think those books and family photos look good on your coffee table, that doesn’t mean everyone will. The best way to stage your home is to take all of your personality out of it. Leave a blank slate for buyers to imagine themselves moving into.
Take Care of Your Trash
Sometimes trash cans overflow. It happens. Don’t, however, let it happen when you have a viewing scheduled. Overflowing trash bins can give an air of neglect to homes.
Cleaning up your yard and decluttering your house is simple and goes a long way towards creating a good first impression.
