Home Selling Tips

Home Selling Tips 1 - Make your home look organized - even if you are not. Remove excess furniture throughout your home. Remove half the contents of your closets to show buyers there is plenty of room. 

Home Selling Tips 2 - Know which improvements pay for themselves before you make costly investments. Have your home professionally inspected before you put it on the market. 

Home Selling Tips 3 - Clean countertops so they look like new. If countertops need updating, replace them. It is one of the best investments you can make. 

Home Selling Tips 4 - Depersonalize the entire house. Eliminate personal photos, trophies, refrigerator magnets, etc. Remove all items that are smaller than a cantaloupe from counters and shelves. 

Home Selling Tips 5 - Remove clutter from walkways and driveways. Organize, reduce and clean like you have never done before. Repair and repaint any part of exterior that needs it. 

Home Selling Tips 6 - Prevent buyers from thinking about the work they will have to do if they buy your home. Scrutinize every room as though you are the buyer – and be brutally honest. 

Home Selling Tips 7 - Hire a cleaning service, if you can afford to. It is a good investment. Stage vacant rooms with appropriate furniture. Repurpose furniture into other rooms as necessary. 

Home Selling Tips 8 - Ask your neighbors whether they know anyone who might be interested in purchasing your home. Remind your neighbors that a successful sale of your home will help their home values and ask them to maintain their curb appeal, if necessary. 

Home Selling Tips 9 - Decorate your home to suit your prospective buyers – not yourself. Repair, then paint any stains on walls and ceiling. Store extra furniture, clothes and miscellaneous items away from your home. 

Home Selling Tips 10 - Get advice from a house staging professional. Find a Realtor. Be prudent when you set the price of your home.
