5 declutter tips before selling your home.

  1.  Depersonalize.  Pack away personal photos and knick-knacks. A blank canvas lets buyers envision their own lives there while protecting your privacy.
  2. Get a head start on packing. Pack away items not in use and store them neatly in the garage or designated area.This lightens the load later and creates space for new beginnings.
  3. Edit your belongings. Thin out your cupboards, closets and pantries to reveal storage space.An overpacked storage area suggests limited space.
  4. Remove excess furniture. This maximizes perceived size of room while allowing buyers to visualize their own furniture layout and flow.
  5. Get an organized & clean look. Minimize electrical cords, keep surfaces and walkways clear. Make a great first impression with a welcoming entryway.
