10 Tips to Get Your House Ready for Sale 

Have you thought about selling your home? Are you feeling overwhelmed with thinking of all the things you need to do to list your home for sale? With the market shifting and normalizing more over the past couple of months, it’s important to be sure your home stands out both through photos and in person. With that in mind, here are ten things you can do to get your house ready for sale:
 
1. Declutter the main living areas of your home. This will make it look more spacious and inviting to potential buyers
 
2. Deep clean your home from top to bottom. This includes cleaning carpets, floors, windows, and all surfaces.
 
3. Make any necessary repairs. Fix any broken fixtures, cracked tiles, or holes in the walls.
 
4. Paint your walls. A fresh coat of neutral paint will make your home look clean and new.
 
5. Stage your home. This means arranging furniture and decor in a way that is pleasing to the eye and makes good use of space.
 
6. Declutter your closets and storage spaces. Buyers will want to see how much storage space your home has, so make sure it looks spacious and organized.
 
7. Curb appeal is important. Make sure your lawn is trimmed and your landscaping is tidy. During the fall months, be sure to leaf blow and pick up branches in the yard.
 
8. Add some fresh flowers or greenery. This will add a pop of color and make your home feel more inviting. Mums are a great idea during the fall months.
 
9. Make sure your home is well lit. Open curtains and turn on all the lights to make your home look bright and cheery.
 
10. Create a good first impression. This means making sure your front door is clean and welcoming, and that your entryway is tidy.
