house goes on market

Our home will be on the market this Saturday!!! Ugh im nervous and happy at the same time.. While I expect it to be awhile till we sell I cant help but get excited for what the future holds for us!

Any last minute things I should do before our relator comes over Saturday to take the pics?

I would say 'stage' it as well as possible, store in closets/basement/attic as much of your stuff as possible, the less clutter the better picture a buyer can get of how to make a home their own--GOOD LUCK!

SIL staged hers and had 2 offers the first week she put it on the market.

(Granted I think she also lived in a desirable area, not affected by Sandy, but who knows).

Thanks guys I did the best I could with DE cluttering the home. I basically lerft the kitchen, living room, and bedrooms to the bare minimums, my only problem area is my lower level its used as my daughters space so it has a lot of toys I hide/put away all the small stuff but she has a kitchen set a laundry set a roller coaster a vanity and a art easel lol all big items that are to hard to just "hide" they are all organized an stuff I hope it doesn't deter any potential buyers...

Re: house goes on market

When we listed our house my DS was just under 2 years old, so his toys were all over the lower level of our home. We did remove ALL the toys to take photos for the listing, but we didn't go crazy trying to hide everything when we had showings. We would just straighten up. I felt it was important to show space in the listing photos, but once people saw the place in person they could easily separate the "stuff" from the actual size/space of the rooms.
