Curb appeal is the cover of the book, first impressions are what people remember when they go home
You know the basic curb appeal storyline: If potential buyers don’t like what they see from the street, they might never get inside the front door. You might have done the same at some point yourself when shopping for a home.
Clutter-less means starting slow, small and remain steady
Clutter tolerance seems to run a fever cycle, much like the flu. Every so often, the cluttered household will become intolerable, sparking the home manager to brief, massive anti-clutter spasms. Piles will be shifted, boxes will be filled, stuff will be stashed--until the fever breaks.

Odors are bad-- aromas are good
Tips for removing odors
You know the basic curb appeal storyline: If potential buyers don’t like what they see from the street, they might never get inside the front door. You might have done the same at some point yourself when shopping for a home.

Creating wonderful aromas
Tips for giving your house that fresh scent
Don't leave your most valuable asset solely in the hands of your real estate agent and expect them to work miracles. Each room of your house is important and we tell you how to make sure your house is putting its best foot forward.
You’ll notice that we refer your property as a house and not your home. When you’re selling a property it’s very important to no longer think of the structure as your home. A home is where your heart is, and since you’ve made the decision to sell your current structure, your heart is no longer in it. It’s out there waiting to snuggle into a new home.
Thinking of your property as a house will free your thinking and help you take a new look at the property in a way that you may never have before. And that’s important!
Part of the sales process is removing you from the property. Remember, your heart is elsewhere. You want to de-personalize your home and open it up so a prospect can see how your property might become their new home.
