"It seems like our house is overflowing with 'stuff' - any tips on reducing it in time for the sale?"
A home full of clutter will instantly look smaller, darker and less inviting to potential buyers - hardly ideal conditions to achieve your desired sale price. The solution is to tackle that long-overdue spring clean head-on - and spare clutter any mercy!
Tips on de-cluttering
- Round up the toys that your kids have lost interest in. Explain that the toys will be going to other children less fortunate and donate them to a Christmas charity.
- An easy way to clear the house of your unwanted possessions is to organise a garage sale. It's a great way to alleviate the hassle of moving the items yourself.
- Photos add needless clutter. People need to envisage themselves living in the house that you are selling.
