How to Sell a Canton home - How to prepare your living room to sell, Your living room is one of the first rooms a Metro Detroit home buyer sees when they walk into your home. And they say that a home buyer sometimes make up their minds to buy a home in under 2 minutes.
So here are my steps to make your Canton home's living room ready to sell.
- Remove any wallpaper or wall paper borders in the room
- Remove any family pictures. Home buyers can't visualize themselves in the home if your pictures are up on the wall.
- Remove any collections or decor. If you like southwestern decor take down the cactus and dream catchers. If you collect dolls put away the 30 dolls. One or two is okay.
- Paint the room in neutral colors. I know you love that bright red color, but buyers want to move into the home and do nothing. Just because you love that red color doesn't mean the next person will. Even if a buyer wants a different color they will feel good that they can move into the house right away and then change the colors at a later time..
- Shampoo and clean the carpet
- Clean the windows.
- If you have heavy drapes it would be good to put sheers on the windows. You can usually pick them up reasonably at a home store. You want to allow as much light into the house as possible.
- If you have every square space of the walls covered with furniture, it would be wise to remove a few pieces. You want the room to appear spacious. There should be a clear pathway from the doorways to the other doorways. Remember wide open spaces is the key.
- Put brighter light bulbs in any light fixture.
