Tips for selling

Purge, purge, purge, and then purge some more. Box up and store your excess possessions, including furniture. This really does include that wall of photos of your children from birth through to their marriages. You want a prospective buyer walking into your house to see it as their home, not yours. Get rid of the decorations, the self help stickers, the awards and distractions. You want a perspective buyer to get a sense of space, not a dark, dingy hovel. Square footage sells so take advantage of yours and make it visible. Rent a storage unit or pod for those boxed up excess possessions.You are fooling no one leaving all those boxes out in the garage. People just assume your house is too small, you don’t have enough storage, you don’t keep your house clean and tidy, can’t fit a car in the garage, etc. when you leave those packed boxes in the garage.
