Tips On Decluttering Your Home Before Listing

Posted on 2021-02-162021-03-13 By WebEditor No Comments on Tips On Decluttering Your Home Before Listing

We’ve all been there. Getting ready to list your house but when you take a look around you have no idea where to start. The only thing you know is you are moving and have been searching mystic ct real estate, stonington real estate or groton ct real estate. Read our blog for some tips.

  1. Toss the Trash

We often become “clutter blind” to things that collect in our homes. If you have mail waiting to be read, magazines and newspapers you intended to read (but probably won’t), and things that need to be recycled, donated, or thrown away, do that now. Go through every room in your house with a garbage bag and a donation bag. (Be sure to shred any sensitive documents so this information doesn’t fall into the wrong hands!)

  1. Get Rid of Furniture

If you have rooms overloaded with furniture, they’ll appear too small and unwelcoming to potential buyers. Eliminate all unessential furniture and any upholstered items that are threadbare or excessively worn. It’s better to have less and use your best pieces to stage your home.

  1. Depersonalize

You probably have your favorite memories on display such as cherished photographs, children’s artwork, postcards, and memorabilia. These items should be placed in specially marked boxes and tucked away for your move or to give to family members. This will help potential buyers imagine how the home will look with their items.

  1. Clear the Surfaces

Look at every flat surface in your home. Things tend to collect on countertops, tables, and shelves, making a home look crowded and giving buyers the impression there’s no room for their life to unfold in this space. If a surface has more than a single decorative item (or a related grouping of three things), it’s too “busy” to be inviting to a potential buyer.

  1. Unstuff the Closets

Before listing your home, every closet should appear neat, clean and spacious. Crowded closets look too small to use. In bedrooms, remove everything except for the in-season clothes you often wear and enjoy most. Everything else should be packed up or donated. Linen closets should be organized with a maximum of two fresh changes of sheets and pillowcases for each bed. Keep only your nicest towels and washcloths. Retire the old ones to the rag box. The hall closet should hold jackets and coats for the current season and have enough room to accept visitors’ coats.
