orange county real estate: RAISE THE CURTAINS - 07/29/09 12:40 PM

If you're selling in anything other than a hot market, you might find "staging" your home can help generate more interest and offers.  You needn't spend thousands of dollars on improvements or professional consultants, however.  There are several things you can take into your own hands to improve your home's appeal.
Begin by removing scatter rugs and knickknacks, which can clutter a room.  In the kitchen, remove all appliances from the counters except the coffee maker and microwave.  Set your dining table in a welcoming fashion, with plates, flatware and napkins.
