Preparing to Sell

The practical side of getting a house ready to list. These posts come straight from our walkthroughs and installs: how to prepare your home before the stager arrives, which rooms deserve attention first, the mistakes we see most often, and how to stage a vacant home when the budget is tight. Everything here is written so you can act on it this weekend, whether or not you ever hire us.
