Before your home goes on the market, you should take some initial steps to get it ready.

There are certain ways to get your house in good shape and ready to sell. A coat of fresh paint goes a long way to update and brighten your home.

Decluttering and clearing counters can make a kitchen appear larger. Pulling weeds or adding plants indoors can change curb appeal or make the home more inviting.

Home staging tips

DO WHAT YOU CAN

You don't have to undertake major renovations to get your home ready for sale. Minor adjustments -indoors and out - can make your home appealing to buyers.

De-personalize your home by removing family photos, trophies and awards, vacation souvenirs, and any religious decor. As buyers view your home they will be trying to visualize it being their own house and that can be difficult if all they see is your family's personal belongings.

Clean the home from the floors to the windows. Make it shine and hire professionals if needed. Small repairs such as fixing the leaky faucet and replacing all the burned out bulbs will make a difference too.

Home Selling Process

Testimonials

  Marion was referred to me by a very highly respected "business friend" and she proved to be all that my friend boasted about. I did not really think that I needed an agent to assist me in selling my home ......... but I was proven to be wrong ! Many of the "details" would have been sorely overlooked and could have proven to be a disaster for me ! Marion handles every detail with great professionalism and was able to complete my sales transaction without a worry to me. I would, indeed, recommend Marion to my friends knowing that I was doing them a great service.
