Property Staging Tips That Sellers Can Use

1. Give your place a clean-up. Yes, this might sound obvious, but you'd be surprised how many sellers who don't clean up their place before listing fail to mention it on their listings. Not only does this make the place look unkempt and uncomfortable, but it can also make potential buyers' experience more unpleasant than it needs to be. If you're selling a rental property and don't want to invest in any extra cleaning supplies, do yourself a favor and take care of this task as soon as possible!

2. Add photos of the house when listing. This is another tip that seems simple—and yet so many people forget about it! When you list your home on [site], take some time to add photos that show off its best features while also highlighting any shortcomings or problems with the property (or those things you're trying to fix). By showing potential buyers what they can expect from the home before they even get in it, they'll feel like they're getting exactly what they want when they check out the listing—which means less stress for both sides involved.

3. Get professional photos taken of your home if possible.

Staging your property is one of the most important things you can do to improve your chances of selling it, and we've got some tips to help.

1. Add a few personal touches to the home: throw in a few photos of yourself, or even buy something from your favorite online store that relates to the space—it shows potential buyers you take care of the place, and it can also help them fall in love with it.

2. Clean like crazy: if there's anything that needs to be fixed before showing potential buyers, make sure it's taken care of first. This will leave a cleaner impression for potential buyers and make it easier for them to envision themselves living in the house (and then living with their family!).

3. Make sure everything works properly before showing up: if there are any appliances that aren't working properly—like an oven or microwave—fix those first so they aren't broken when showtime comes around!

4. If possible, hire professional cleaners: getting your house cleaned professionally by professionals can really go a long way towards making everything look new.
