 For example, neutralizing will achieve that. The colors you love will not necessarily be the most appealing to buyers. Consider replacing any statement colors on your walls with neutral colors.  Wallpaper is usually a turn-off – check with your Realtor or home stager to verify that it should be removed.

Often sellers mistakenly believe a buyer credit enabling the buyer to select their paint and flooring is the right choice. Purchasing a home is an emotional decision; buyers typically make up their minds within minutes whether or not they love your home. It’s best to address those issues before the buyer walks in the door.

Depersonalize by removing photos, trophies, collections, etc. You want the buyer to feel welcome and able to picture themselves in your home. Your Realtor can help you identify which items to remove.

Declutter closets, cabinets, and countertops. Most importantly, you will consult an experienced real estate agent who will give you a punch list of simple things to do to sell your home for the highest price.
