It's like a recurring nightmare .... well sort of ....
Homes that have not been marketed properly because the sellers are unaware of the messages their home is sending out. 
The seller that was surprised that the buyers didn't like the forest that made up the backyard. They loved their deck under the trees. My solution ..... give the buyers a destination to focus on. Create an intimate seating area in the forest. Show the buyers how to use the forest.
The seller that wanted to stage their home after they moved out to their new house. When I looked at the MLS photos I knew right away what was putting buyers off. It was a small two bedroom home with too much 'stuff'. The rooms were full making them look smaller. They had added huge storage units to the kitchen and master bedroom sending out a clear message that the house's storage space was inadequate. My solution would be to move the excess furniture and storage units to the next house opening up the present home. Take this time to do the painting etc they have planned for the new house before they move in. Both houses benefit.
Keep in mind that you are selling a product. The more people that like the look of your product the better your chances of success.
It can be hard to see your home full of memories in an objective manner. Call in Professional help before you go on the market. Get a clear picture of your home. Find out how to highlight the good features and show the buyer how to live with the not so good.
