Keep reading for a few helpful staging tips.
Do Away With Clutter.
Buyers hate clutter! So, start by decluttering the walls by removing wall art and other photos that are crowding the space and go from there. The trick here is to make your rooms look more spacious. If you have extra furniture laying around that is causing your space to look smaller, put it in storage.
Amp Up Your Curb Appeal
This is crucial! Your curb appeal is sort of the first impression your home has on potential buyers. Try giving the front door a fresh coat of paint, adding address numbers to the mailbox or on your front porch somewhere, or freshening up the front yard with some beautiful planted flowers. You want to make your potential buyers feel at ease from the moment they see your home.
Take Personal Items Out of Sight
Potential buyers need to feel like they can picture themselves living in the home. That can be hard to do when there are pictures of you and your family all around. Take all personal touches out of the equation to try and avoid this issue.
Clean Up Anything Pet-Related
If you have a cat and it clearly smells like it when people walk into your home, that can turn buyers away quickly. Remove any pet water and food bowls and give your home a thorough cleaning to make it seem as if you didn't have any pets living there.
Make the Master Bedroom Attractive to BOTH Genders
Paint the walls in your bedroom a neutral color, such as gray or tan. The point here is that you don't want a man, for example, walking into a hot pink bedroom and immediately feeling a negative feeling about this place.
Then call our respected, long-time publication at the Lake of the Ozarks. The Lake of the Ozarks Real Estate and Area Business Guide is distributed all over the Lake area and your home could be seen by tons of potential buyers. Now is your chance! Get that house or condo sold to the right buyer! Just call 573-280-9588 or 573-692-2922 for more information.
