Sign into your accountTips for Selling that Hot Property with the Sellers' Kids Out of School
August 11 2016
Getting a house ready for showings involves educating your sellers on the ins and outs of staging a home, but what happens when the seller's children are home from school for the summer?
You want the property to appeal to the widest variety of buyers, including buyers with children and ones without children. Use our following real estate selling tips to ensure the home is portrayed in the best possible light.
Declutter
Buyers prefer to see a house with the bare necessities in order to be able to picture their own belongings in it. The less clutter on countertops and in rooms, the better.
Neutral, Neutral, Neutral
The sellers may think their kid's pink and purple paint job is adorable, but chances are a potential buyer will just see more work for them. Sellers should paint any room with a neutral color before listing.
Depersonalization
Your sellers will be best advised to remove as many personal effects as possible from walls, including family photos and children's drawings. Have sellers fill in the holes with putty and paint.
