Schaumburg Homes - Ten things to REMOVE before you start showing your home for sale!
Boy, I just can't say some of these suggestions enough when it comes to staging your Schaumburg home for sale.
I'm going to keep at it until everyone gets the message on preparing their home for the market! YES, it's that important.
Thanks to Lindsey Hasford of Minnesota for this post.
Everyone has heard rumors of de-cluttering when it's time to sell your home. But, what does that really mean?  Before going hog wild and moving out... here's a few of the most important things to consider removing before you list your home for sale.
10. Personal photos. I don't always recommend removing photos of the 'family' but if you have hallways filled with photos or photos on every end table it is probably necessary. Buyers really DO get distracted by them. They will take them all in as they walk down the hall. Not only do they take away from the home, but it's really disturbing when a buyer is excited to 'know' the sellers. And, the buyers do look at them.
9. Bills and personal papers. I understand that you cannot remove these document from the home all together, but please take the time to organize them, box them ... more
