Preparing your house for sale
You have decided to sell your house and have decided on a Realtor. Now you can just sit back and let the offers roll in, right?  No, now you have to get to work.  Once your house is on the market, it is no longer “your home”, it is a “product”.
You are moving anyway. Why not pack up all the unnecessary items after you have done a complete purge. This will help you neutralize your home and make it more desirable. I think my house is lovely, just the way it is, you say. Well, you aren’t selling your decorating expertise now are you. Here are a few suggestions to help you out.
       Family photos - you love your family, but they don’t come with the house. Pack them up.        Kids toys - This will be hard, but they need to be as invisible as possible.        Hunters – No trophies on the walls. They could scare or offend a buyer or their child.        Gun owners – Lock them up and get them out of sight.        Plants – Less is more. If you aren’t taking them with you get rid of them now.        Kitchen appliances ... more
