HOW TO GET YOUR HOUSE READY FOR PHOTOSHOOT - 15 TIPS
CLICK HERE to read this helpful blog article with photo examples, written by our founder Liza Sue (this article is unbranded for Realtors - so you can send it to your sellers!) http://www.lovebecreate.com/15-tips-to-sell-your-house-fast/
1.) Remove EVERYTHING from the refrigerator doors and sides – including “cute” magnets. You want your home to look like a model home in a magazine.
2.) Clear off all bathroom surfaces – leaving at most the soap dispenser and updated, minimal decorations. This includes hiding your toothbrush, blow dryer, lotions, etc. Putting everything in a basket and hiding it in the closet or under the sink can make a huge difference.
3.) Remove everything from the kitchen counters – except maybe the coffee pot, a plant, toaster and pretty canisters. Don’t forget to remove the Dawn dish soap. All the clutter can make the kitchen look messy.
4.) Replace ALL burnt out light bulbs. This can make a big difference. If you have a pretty chandelier in the photo and 2 of the bulbs are burnt out – it can give the impression the house isn’t cared for. Don’t forget when buyers come for a showing you want to turn on all the lights to brighten up each room.
5.) Put away the coasters and remotes in the living room. If it’s in the budget, buy some updated throw pillows and matching end table lamps. Places like Target, TJMaxx and Homegoods have great deals and you can take them to your next property.
6.) Hide any animal beds, litter boxes and animal food dishes. This can be a quick turn-off for a lot of buyers. Large cat trees, dog beds and the smell of litter quickly turn off a lot of buyers.
7.) Open up the blinds and curtains. Natural light is everything! Unless you’re trying to block a really undesirable view. Everyone loves a bright, cheery room.
8.) Remove family photos from the home. People want to envision their family living their – it can be hard if the house is filled with someone else’s family pictures. Replace with neutral art and decorations.
9.) Clear off the dressers and night stands. Don’t leave out the lotions and beauty products, tissue boxes, alarm clocks, charger stations, cords, etc. It looks really cluttered in photos and makes the room feel messy.
10.) Clean, clean, clean and add neutral air fresheners (like vanilla). You want to show your house is cared for. Have the carpets shampooed, floors moped, polish your stainless-steel appliances, fresh mulch in the yard, windows and sills cleaned, trim and doors washed, bathrooms scrubbed and tubs re-caulked if necessary.
11.) Remove oversized big furniture and king size beds from small rooms. Even if it’s useful to you, it’s best to show the room’s potential – and large dressers can make it feel cramped.
12.) Minimize all clutter. You want minimal, neutral, updated decorations. The quickest way to stand out from your competition is to appeal to the masses. Crazy bold colors, busy decorations, clutter, toys and outdated-decor is going to appeal to less people. Styles change every 5 years or quicker. So if you think, well this is in “good-shape” but you bought it 10 years ago – it may be time to update if it’s in the budget.
13.) Update your bathroom towels, rugs and shower curtains. This makes a big impact and it’s affordable! Target has great prices and really trendy designs to make the bathroom shine and you’ll get to take these items with you when you move.
14.) Paint any dark or bright colored rooms neutral, light grey. Try using bright colors as accents instead of the main color in the room. While shades of grey just happen to be the most appealing to the majority of buyers right now, you can also use other neutrals like tans, whites, browns and very pale colors.
15.) Paint all oak and wood paneling – white! It makes a pretty dramatic difference and the majority of buyers today are turned off by oak and too much wood. Painting wood-paneled rooms white also makes the space feel larger. Painting an oak kitchen is actually pretty affordable and woman tend to buy houses based on the bathrooms and kitchens – so spend your money staging in those rooms.
So this leads sellers to ask, “Where will I put all this stuff?!” I always recommend putting items you need in bins and laundry baskets. Then you can hide them in cupboards/closets or put in your trunk and take it with you when showings are scheduled.
Another tip for sellers, is to remove any religious decor & political signs. You want to appeal to ALL people. So keeping it politically correct and neutral is important so you don’t turn off a potential buyer. Some sellers will even take down religious or cultural decor to keep it completely neutral - thus appealing to the masses.
My sellers who follow these tips sell houses quicker and for top dollar verses those who don’t. I always say that nothing is personal here, it’s just based on what the masses want – and a Professional Photographer & Realtor’s job is to educate and help people sell their homes as quickly as possible – netting them the most money!
