When deciding to sell your home decluttering is a must! You are trying to sell your home not your contents. If your home is full of items it can look messy and be off putting to potential buyers. You need your contents to make the house look as good as possible, not be the feature.

Decluttering can make your home seem bigger, but be careful not to depersonalise too much. Buyers like to see how the space will used for living. 🏠

Hallways, as the entrance to the home, are the first impression people get and they are generally quite narrow. Make sure everything is tidied away and clear of items that do not belong there, it will help make the narrow space look wider and more inviting. 🧹

Declutter the rest of the house, remove large furniture items that make rooms look smaller if you can. Clear the kitchen worktops of all those unused gadgets! Tidy the children’s (or the dogs!) toys away, and get rid of those half used toiletries from the bathroom. 🛁

The garden often gets forgotten in the tidy up, remove any rubbish. Give the lawn a fresh cut, tidy any borders and hide the bins if you can. 🌿

The decluttering will need to be done for your move anyway so why not start early and show off your home in it’s best possible light! ✨
