HOW TO PREPARE YOUR HOME FOR SALE + LISTING PHOTOS

We recently sold a home last year (before the in demand market) and in one day, it received multiple over asking! Here's how we got it listing ready.

HOME

If you are looking to list your home, here are some affordable ways to spruce up your home to appeal to many buyers.  Keep in mind most homeowners will want to renovate to their tastes so the goal is to make it look fresh and clean.

Fresh white paint

1

Whisper White was recommended by our realtor. Flat finish on ceiling, eggshell on all walls, and semi-gloss on doors and trim.

New carpet

2

Everyone has different taste so you just want the floors to look clean, install a neutral carpet. The new homeowners may want to rip it up anyway.

Clean the floors

3

We had our porous tile floors professionally cleaned and sealed. It made for a great first impression.

Remove broken items

4

If it looks tired or is broken, just remove it.

Resurface counters

5

We sprayed the counter and bathroom tile white, it's cheaper than redoing the bathrooms.

Staging

6

Staging truly is important! It allows buyers to see the layout, furniture scaling and visualize how they can use the space.
