It is important to create a warm and inviting interior, as well as to create space. One of the ways to do this is to remove clutter to make your house appear as spacious as possible. Remove any items that aren't used frequently from kitchen counters, closets and even attics. This will also help to expedite packing when it comes time to move. And clear out the garage and basement.
Buyers like to feel that there is a lot of storage space available on the premises.
You'll want to make the call on the washer and dryer before you start showing the home. Leaving some appliances, drapes or other amenities behind could be a strong incentive to a buyer. Give every room in your home a thorough cleaning, or consider hiring a professional cleaning service. Kitchens and bathrooms are especially important - so be sure that appliances and fixtures are spotless. Be sure to make any necessary repairs.
