Considering capitalizing on low inventory and the hot real estate market? Here are five high-level tips for getting your home organized before a sale:

  1. Declutter. A few months out, start getting rid of items you don’t need.
  2. Get your home photo-ready. Your Realtor can help select items for staging + showings.
  3. Make repairs. Whether it’s loose doorknobs or painting, the details matter (and maintenance projects can lead to a greater sales price).
  4. Deep clean. Make sure your home is ultra-tidy for buyers.
  5. Keep seasonality in mind. Does your home shine during the spring or amongst fall foliage? Consider selling (and photographing) your home during those months.
