If you’re looking for budget-friendly home staging tips, you’ve come to the right place. Here are 10 cost-effective things you can do to get your home ready to sell.
- Focus on the curb appeal. It’s not uncommon for prospective buyers to do a “drive-by” viewing before setting up an actual showing. Improving the curb appeal of your home — by maintaining your lawn, painting your shutters, power washing your siding and planting flowers — will help get more potential buyers inside.
- Get rid of clutter. People who view your home need to be able to envision their own belongings in every room. Do your best to eliminate clutter and streamline décor.
- Steam clean your carpets. Renting a steam cleaner can make carpets look new and eliminate unsightly stains with minimal effort.
- Organize your closets. Potential buyers will want to open your closets and see plenty of space, so don’t just shove everything in there and shut the door.
- Rearrange furniture. Aim for symmetrical arrangements and pull couches away from the walls to give the illusion of more space.
- Utilize mirrors. Speaking of more space, hanging a mirror in a small room will make it feel and appear larger.
- Embrace neutral colors. You child may love the neon green accent wall in their room, but it’ll be in the best interest of selling your home to repaint a neutral color.
- Make your porch welcoming. Add a welcome mat, some hanging plants and a rocking chair to make the porch visually appealing as visitors enter your home.
- Spruce up your bathrooms. Put fresh soap in the soap dish, fold the towels nicely, buy a new shower curtain and consider framing your mirror.
- Appear pet-free. If you have a pet, you likely have pet odors — even if you don’t notice them anymore. Do your best to eliminate any smells or visible pet hair and stow away your furry friend’s toys for the time being.
