Declutter

One of the very first things you need to do when it comes to listing your home on the market is declutter your home. This is because when photographers come to take pictures for the online listing, your home needs to look pristine. If there is a lot of clutter lying around then you won’t get much interest in your home. Another reason for decluttering is that when potential buyers come to view your property they need to be able to envision how their own belongings will look filling the space. They won’t be able to do this if all they can see is your stuff. Remember, they don’t need to see your stuff as that is going with you to your new place. 

The easiest way to declutter with the least amount of stress is to sort your items into four piles. These piles should consist of items you want to keep, throw out, donate, and sell. It is always a nice idea to give some stuff away as this gives you a huge sense of achievement. It is also nice to hold some sort of yard sale or garage sale to get rid of any unwanted items. 

Carry Out Repairs

Now it’s time to have a walk around your home to make sure that there are no sneaky repairs that need to be fixed. It might be a good idea to get a pre-sale inspection of your home, this will highlight anything that needs doing. These could be minor repairs such as repainting the walls or a major repair such as a damaged roof. This is something that happens a lot especially as your roof is exposed to all elements. Contact a local roofing company to help mend your roof and get it back to normal before potential buyers pop around. 

Deep Clean

Finally, once you have decluttered and carried out repairs it is essential that you deep clean your home thoroughly top to bottom. This can seem like an impossible task but remember it doesn’t all have to be completed in one day. You can break it down and sort one room per day if you wanted to, no need to stress yourself out over cleaning. Everything in your home will need to be spotless, this includes sinks, baths, skirting boards, and oven hoods. Potential buyers will think of anything to get your home at a lower price or not put an offer in at all. If you don’t have the time to clean your home then you could call in the professionals to help you with this. Make sure you check out the reviews before settling on a company to use. They will clean your home and make sure it’s spotless, including all floors.
