10 Easy Home Sale Tips

By Barbara Ballinger

1.

6. Remove outdated wallpaper, replacing it with paint

2.

Remove, store, or discard excessive accessories on tabletops and walls and in cabinets. Some suggest following the rule of three: Leave out only three things on any surface.

Add power outlets with USB ports in rooms that lack them, especially in the kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms where they’re most needed. Eliminate acoustic popcorn-style ceilings since they look dated and tacky.

3. Use what you have, and arrange each room in a

conversational way if possible. Don’t set all furnishings in a family room so they face a TV, since most potential buyers like the idea of an open-room for socializing.

4.

Clean carpets and wood floors since they’re often the first part of a room that buyers check out; you don’t need to replace them unless they’re in terrible shape.

5. Change out corroded or dented door knobs and

levers. The replacements don’t have to be expensive but they should look new and clean.

and preferably a neutral color,

7.

8. Pay attention to your bathrooms. Specifically,

make sure you have freshly laundered towels, new soap in soap dishes, spotless mirrors, and no mildew in view.

9. Improve a home’s healthfulness by using paints and adhesives with low or no VOCs. Point out these changes to prospective buyers.

10.

Be sure your house is priced competitively with the current market and homes in your area. In most regions, it’s still the No. 1 “fix” to sell quickly.
