It's time for a serious Spring Cleaning. 

Pack up the precious pictures and knick-knacks that adorn your surfaces.  Go through your closets and dispose of those items you have not used in years.  Why keep moving them around if you are not using them anyway? 

When buyers view your home with clear surfaces they have the opportunity to envision pictures of their loved ones and their personal possessions adorning the surfaces of, what might be, their new home. 

After you have decluttered you have probably noticed the walls may need a quick coat of fresh paint, go for it-add a little color.  Contrasting walls can enlarge a room.  The right colors can change the entire appeal of your home. 

Go outside and take a serious look at the front of your home.  This is the first thing a prospective buyer will see.  Does it need a little sprucing up?  Have a look at this article for some great tips for creating Curb Appeal on a Budget, you will find some great tips for improving the overall look of your home without breaking the bank.  

Lets face it, we don't all have the knack for interior decorating.  Home staging has become a thriving industry for a very good reason.  A professional home stager can literally transform your home using your own furniture and accessories while blending them with some borrowed or rented items.  Utilizing the services of a professional home stager can speed the sale of your home by improving its overall appeal and can net you a higher sale price, paying for itself several times over.

Home staging can cost you anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.  Don't let those numbers throw you.  You will make that back in the sale price of your home. 

Over the winter months Real Estate sales in Long Beach suffered.  Approximately 80% of the homes listed did not sell, mostly due to overpricing.  There are a lot of properties on the market already and many more preparing to enter the spring market.  Don't become a casualty!  Invest in the sale of your home.
