7 Tips to Prepare Your Home for Sale


1. Make sure your home is well maintained. Try to fix all the major issues (paint it, renew it, replace the broken parts etc.). Don’t forget the little stuff as well (change the light bulbs, door knobs etc.).

2. De-cluttering and minimalizing your stuff will create the appearance of a home and lifestyle that functions well, make your rooms look bigger and lighter, and attract the potential buyers.

3. Make sure the house is spotless, especially the appliances in the kitchen, floors and cabinets. Get rid of almost everything on the counters, so the area looks nice and neat. 

4. Identify the things about your house, you like the most and focus on showcasing these areas to their best potential. If these things made you fall in love with the house, your buyer would probably like them too.

5. Keep your front yard clean throughout the marketing period, maybe work on some landscaping, so you attract the highest amount of your target buyers. 

6. Ask your real estate agent to help you set up the right price. Over priced homes will not sell no matter how good they are.

7. Be “open” for business 24/7 and try to leave the house when it is being shown. Buyers will feel more comfortable if the seller is not present.

  1. “Ask your real estate agent to help you set up the right price.” Exactly! They surely know what the appropriate price is for the different kinds of homes. In addition, there are documents that are needed to be prepared when you sell your house, such as deeds and title insurance, and they can also help you with these.

  2. Another tip in home staging is to leave some trinkets during showing time. These can be fresh flowers to give off a welcoming and homey impression or delicacies to show that you appreciate the buyer’s effort of coming over and scouting your home. Impression is a key to a successful sale.
