While it might be your goal to keep your home show-ready at all times, that isn’t always possible. It is completely normal to have a condo or a home that feels lived in – especially if you are living in it! This isn’t a major issue, but something to be aware of if you are getting ready to list your condo or home.
If your home is already for sale, you may have already experienced the stress of last minute showings. Of course, you want your condo or home to appeal to a potential buyer, but you also want to be able to maintain some normalcy while you are still living at home. Here are some tips to help you show your home in a way that potential buyers will love and you can actually manage!
Create Routine
Create an easy maintenance cleaning schedule for yourself and/or each member of your household. Rather than having to worry about cleaning the entire house all at once, this allows you to maintain order and cleanliness – making show-ready living easy to achieve!
Decide On The Necessities
Once you decide to put your condo or home up for sale, you should do a walk-through of your entire home. Decide what items you’ll need and use while your home is on the market, and start to make a packing plan for the rest. If you have the room, store items in-house, or consider renting a storage unit. Either way, you will have much less to worry about packing when it is time to move! Decluttering can help.
Quick Fix Containers
Thankfully, decorative baskets and bins of all sorts are all the rage right now. If you don’t already use containers to organize and store toys, clothes, shoes, or other items – now is the best time to start! You will then be able to toss those items quickly into their storage space before a showing.
