To get the best price for the most money, hire a professional stager. Your REALTOR® should be able to refer someone. If that doesn't fit your budget here are some things to do:
1. Clean. Clean, clean and clean again - even the baseboards!
2. Walls. Paint any walls that are loud colors or dirty. White is out so use a neutral beige or tan.
3. Carpet. Steam clean the carpet. If it is too worn or stained, replace it. Carpet allowances are no longer acceptable to buyers.
4. Furniture. Remove as much extra furniture as possible and all your decorative stuff too. Especially fake ivy and dried flowers.
5. Odors. Your REALTOR® doesn't want to insult you so ask someone who isn't afraid to be honest if there's an odor and get rid of it.
