Since September is natural preparedness month, I thought I'd answer a question I get from a lot of sellers: "What can I do to prepare my home for the market?" Here are our top three tips:

1. Declutter your home. Go through room by room and look for unnecessary furniture or toys. Pack up a few things and store them; you're going to be moving them eventually anyway. Take family photos off the walls. Make the home look as neutral and spacious as possible.
2. Update lighting fixtures. If you have the brass look, definitely make sure to change up the light fixtures. For minimal cost, you can find some nice fixtures that will make your home look updated.
3. Deep clean your entire home. Prospective buyers will open drawers and look behind shower curtains, so make sure everything is sparkling clean. Vacuum thoroughly and organize as much as you can.

The time you spend getting your home ready for the market is the most important part of the listing. Taking some time to prepare can maximize your sale price and minimize the amount of time your home sits on the market.
