Transformation: Depersonalize and Neutralize

You want to sell your home quickly. The fastest way to do so is to start depersonalizing your home to create a blank canvas. You don’t want to distract the buyer with your personal belongings, so pack up the photos, and let the buyer imagine their own photos on your walls and knick-knacks on your shelves all the while saying, “I can see myself living in this home!” Less is more. To help create the blank canvas, paint is inexpensive and it will increase the value of your home, but you need to choose a neutral palette. The goal is to appeal to the masses because when you do, you get more showings, which leads to more offers and then, ultimately, the highest price possible for your property.
