Get Rid of Clutter When
You Sell Your Own Home

When you sell your own home it has to look as neat and spacious as possible. If prospective buyers have the impression it's stuffed to the rafters with everything you have accumulated over the years, they react in a totally irrational manner.

Psychologically they decide there is no room for their belongings in the house. Common sense dictates that the clutter will walk out of the door when the present owners move, but the human brain doesn't work that way.

Removing clutter from closets, cupboards, shelves and drawers is imperative when you sell your own home. And don't forget the garage, basement and attic. Stuff you can live without, get rid of permanently. Hold a garage sale or yard sale and/or donate things to charitable organizations. And what nobody wants goes to the dump.

Those things that you simply can't part with, because you may someday use them again, pack in boxes. But get those boxes out of the house! Stash them in a friend's garage or rent temporary storage space.

Once you have thoroughly cleared out everything that's not essential, replace what's left in an orderly fashion. When you sell your own home, you want potential buyers to open a closet and find roomy shelves with only two boxes on them, one neatly marked "scarves" and the other "gloves".

Interested parties see space they can use and they also note that the homeowner is organized, tidy, and clean. They'll want to move in!

Having your home look better than you've seen it in years makes it not only more saleable, but it will also fetch top dollar.
