When potential buyers come to see your home, they need to visualize it as their home, not yours. One of the best ways to help them do that is to remove clutter and depersonalize your home. You want buyers to see a spacious, sparkling clean, blank canvas that they can make their own. Store personal items, photos, and collectibles, in plastic bins and stack them neatly in your closet or garage—or better yet—in temporary off-site storage. Keep empty bins handy for quick pick-ups. Declutter kitchen and bath countertops, and clean out your refrigerator. Floors and fixtures should be sparkling.
Declutter and organize closets. Buyers want to see storage space, not your winter wardrobe.
Neutralize odors, but don’t overwhelm with artificial scents. Use natural citrus or clean linen- scented cleaning products or air fresheners.
Empty your garage of everything but vehicles. Organize and clean anything that remains.
