Thinking of Selling? Do This Before You List

June 20, 2025

Want your home to make a great first impression? Before listing, give your space a “buyer’s eye” once-over. The goal: help potential buyers picture themselves living there.

Start here:

✔ Declutter counters, bookshelves, and closets

✔ Remove overly personal décor (think family photos and kids’ art)

✔ Freshen up with neutral paint where needed

✔ Open curtains and let in as much natural light as possible

✔ Add a few welcoming touches – like fresh flowers or a clean welcome mat

You don’t need to go full HGTV. But a little effort now can go a long way in how quickly (and how well) your home sells. Thinking about listing soon? We’d love to help you prep.
