DECLUTTER/DEPERSONALIZE – We often get asked ‘what the best thing is we can do for the biggest return on investment when we sell out property’. Our number 1 answer is always declutter and depersonalize your home. We can never stress enough how important this step is when selling a home.
This can be as simple as grabbing some packing boxes and storing items in your garage. If you are in a condo, fill up your storage locker. If you don’t have the space, it may be worthwhile renting a storage locked for a short period of time. We always say, ‘less is more’, when there is a lot of clutter it can be hard for buyers to see past this and imagine themselves living in your home.
CLEAN -The 2nd recommendation we always make is to clean your home. In our experience, some buyers find it hard to see past a home that is not clean. This is especially important if you have pets in your home. It doesn’t have to be a huge expense but depending on your situation we would recommend hiring a professional cleaning company.
If you are thinking of selling, reach out to us and we will be happy to help you with tips on how to get the best return on your investment!
