When Selling Your Home Less is More!

Recently I showed a home that looked like a clearance sale for Winners. They had many beautiful vases and boxes and decorations, so many that you could not see the house.

When you are selling a home, nice furniture and accessories can help, but not if they are overdone. They can make the space feel smaller and cluttered.

What you want to create is a space that buyers can imagine as their own. You want the buyers to be able to move around the home without bumping into any thing.

If you are selling a home to empty nesters, kids toys all over the place (even if neatly stacked) will detract from the charm of the home.

Your big oversized furniture that you bought for your next house, may be making your current home look cramped and uncomfortable.

I would recommend that you make sure that your bathrooms and bedrooms are inviting. Rich plush bath towels with a matching bath mat will make your bathroom so much nicer. Treat yourself to a new comforter and pillows for your bedroom. These things will make your current home more inviting and you can take them with you to your new home.

A good realtor can give you some tips that will make your home easier to sell. But sometimes a home stager can save the day.

Rather than a price reduction, some professional advise from a home-stager may be what the home needs rather than a major price reduction, particularily if your home is priced at market and is still not sold.

Price will fix every problem, and if you keep dropping the price eventually you will get an offer. But you the seller will be leaving money on the table that would be better in your pocket than in the buyer's.
