In my previous post, I spoke about why March is a great time of the year to sell homes in Tahoe/Truckee. To follow up on that, I wanted to give you some tips on how you can get your home in great, sellable condition.

1.    Make sure your house is clean. Since this is your second home, I realize the difficulties of traveling up here and getting everything ready to go. We can help ease that pain by coordinating with a cleaning company to deep clean your windows and carpets. Your home needs to be as clean and fresh as possible!

2.    Remove all clutter from your home. If possible, box up all extra shoes, boots, skis, ski clothes, games and books; all messy areas should be straightened up!

3.    Utilize our staging strategies. Start by purchasing solid, earth-colored towels and place them in the master bathroom and powder room. Next, update the bedspread in your master bedroom with a solid, earth-tone and mountain-style bedspread. Also, add some additional lighting! This could be in the living room, kitchen or any other common areas to showcase the best areas in your house.

4.    When in doubt, take it out! When it comes to the decision of keeping or removing something in your home, get rid of it!

If you have any questions, please give me a call. Thanks and have a great day!
