Welcome back to my video blog. If you are thinking about selling your home, it’s critical to prepare it properly.
Our team takes the time to customize a plan specific for your home: what needs to be done to appeal to the most buyers?
I have three tips to keep in mind when getting ready to list your home.
- Remove all items prior to listing that won’t be included in the sale - I’ve been in situations where the buyer and seller have argued over a chandelier or the washer and dryer, etc.
- Depersonalize (to a degree) - I am not a firm believer in completely neutralizing the property. Buyers do want to see some connection and emotion in the home. A rule of thumb is no more than 5 percent of the decor should be personal items.
- ‘Declutter’ - Unless you are an extreme minimalist, you will probably need to remove 30-40 percent of the items from your home, including furniture, books, movie, kitchen appliances, etc. We will help you go through the items in your home and determine what would be best in storage.
