No! While you should de-personalize your home (eg. remove any family photos), you should never try and sell a completely empty house. It’s been proven that staged homes sell 88% faster and for 20% more money than un-staged homes. Many real estate agents will offer at least basic staging as part of their services. Be sure to ask if staging is complementary or if the cost of staging is to be paid for by you, the seller. Sometimes agents will front the staging cost and pass that cost onto you at closing.
