Next, take a look at the walls and shelves in your home.

Be flexible on your price. This doesn't mean you have to give your house away, but discuss fair prices with your real estate agent and be willing to move on your asking price to get the quick sale. written by Jerry Clifford
If that doesn't remove unpleasant scents, hire a cleaner to come in and clean the carpets, fabric furniture, and drapes. If you have a garbage disposal, run a half a piece of citrus fruit through it before a house tour to freshen it up.

Anything in the sink shouts dirt and disorder (even if it’s clean). Embrace the policy of cleaning as you go and keeping things out of the sink, which means that dishes get done at every meal instead of at the end of the day, so they don’t have a chance to pile up. written by Carolyn Capalbo

One of the particular challenges that comes with staging some older homes, especially ones that have had the same residents for decades, is that of nicotine residue accumulation.

Wilson

You probably know someone, family or friend, who has a spare bed, furniture or tasteful art that you can temporarily place in the room to create the illusion of a happy bedroom. Many people will happily give you castoff furniture in return for you taking it to the local thrift store upon the sale of your home. If the item is to be returned, however, make sure it gets returned clean and in the same (or better!) shape it was when you first borrowed it. written by Sean McPheat

In my new “What’s In a Word” series, I will offer a different word or phrase that could help you or seriously damage your sales efforts.

This is an excellent time to hold a moving sale and get some money from as much of your unwanted items as possible. The rest can be given to charity - don't let them back into the house! For belongings that you don't want to part with, yet are interfering with the staging, you can make room in the garage or rent a storage locker and store your extra belongings there until the house sells. written by Carol Freyer
As someone in the real estate industry, I'm always eager to find out more about buying and selling strategies. However, I'm not sure what to think about using astrology to sell a home. Or Feng Shui. Or magic spells. There are a lot of people more than happy to take your money in exchange for your magic number, star alignment, or real estate amulet, though. written by Mike Andruff
There are a lot of neat things people are doing with cement these days, adding colors and creating patterns, or combining it with areas of paving stones.

But if you've got a complicated pattern in mind, be sure to consult a professional, both for technical and aesthetic advice. written by Sean McPheat
I want you seriously to think about Sales Training Tip: When the prospect says, "I'm happy with my supplier." What barrier, what objection, what problem are we talking about? written by Lisa Gray
The kind of de-cluttering required for a home sale is deeper. It requires you to evaluate every room in your home and eliminate everything you no longer absolutely need. Beyond spring cleaning, even, this is about paring down your junk to the bare minimum. Then, in home staging, you take it another step further. To truly achieve the feel of a staged home, you need to de-personalize it. written by Daniel St-Jean
In today’s very competitive marketplace – online and off – where quality is very much a fait accompli, and where many of the salespeople are on a fairly even ground in relation to training, skills and talent, the difference between the happy salespersons who will swim and win and the frustrated ones who will sink and lose will often come down to “flippers” and “backpacks”. I’ll explain this through an interesting analogy. written by Jake Marsh

If a buyer can move in immediately without needing to do anything, they will probably consider it. A small investment in getting your home ready will pay off in a faster sale, and ideally, a higher offer than if you sold the home "as is". written by RE Writer
