If you’re thinking about selling your home this summer, now is the perfect time to start preparing. A little bit of early planning can make a huge difference when it comes to maximizing your home’s value and minimizing stress when listing time arrives.
Here are my top three tips to help you get your home ready so you can sell quickly and for top dollar.
1️⃣ Declutter & Simplify Your Space
One of the easiest ways to increase your home’s appeal to buyers is by decluttering. Not only will this make your home look cleaner, bigger, and more inviting, but it will also save you time when it’s time to move!
✅ Start packing up items you don’t use daily
✅ Donate, sell, or discard items you won’t be bringing to your new home
✅ Store seasonal items and excess furniture to create a more open feel
Bonus Tip: A decluttered home photographs better and attracts more interest online—where most buyers start their search!
2️⃣ Get a Professional Walk-Through & Home Prep Consultation
Before you list, my team and I will walk through your home to suggest simple, high-impact improvements that could help you sell for more money.
🛠️ Minor repairs and touch-ups (paint, hardware, lighting)
💡 Staging advice to make your home more inviting
📸 Professional photography and marketing strategies
Some small, cost-effective updates can make a big difference in buyer perception and offers.
3️⃣ Start Packing & Prepping for the Move
I know I already mentioned decluttering, but this step is about getting ahead on your move.
📦 Start packing up items you won’t need before moving
📦 Organize paperwork, important documents, and essentials
📦 Identify any large furniture or storage solutions you might need
By early May or June, when you’re ready to list, you’ll already be ahead of the game—allowing you to focus on maximizing your home sale!
