PAINT
It's surprising how a few coats of paint can change the look and feel of a home. Consider painting rooms in a neutral colour, which help draw a potential buyer's attention to things like room dimensions and architectural features.
PACK
Since
you will need to pack everything eventually, start to pack up things that you
will not immediately need, like special mementos and photos, and place some of
your furniture in storage. You will be amazed how much more spacious a home
will seem with a little less in every room. And, it will help you not to be
overwhelmed when you pack.
CLEAR
Kitchens
and bathrooms can be tricky. Instead of trying to redo the look of these rooms
with renovations, simply clear and clean the counters - the space will be more
open and appealing to potential buyers.
TIDY UP
Curb
appeal is a phrase one often hears when talking about selling a home. When
potential buyers first see your home, it is the outside that they see, and
first impressions are important. Spend a little extra time making your yard and
main entrance look neat by clearing away any weeds, trimming hedges and trees,
and removing personal items such as shoes or toys from the entranceway. If you
have time, do the same in the backyard.
