Imagine buyers trying to see themselves in your house while your high school trophies are still on the mantelpiece.

Hiring a stager is like getting a Hollywood makeover for your house.

Your house needs to look like a supermodel in these photos.

Pricing your house is like setting up a lemonade stand – too expensive and you’ll be sipping sour lemons alone.

List your house at $299,999 and watch buyers think they’ve snagged a bargain compared to $300,000.

Get your house on all the online listings you can.

Turn to Facebook, Instagram, and even TikTok to flaunt your home.

Virtual tours let buyers visit without leaving their couch.

Throwing an open house at the right time is like planning a party.

Bake cookies, light candles, play soft jazz.

Before the haggling starts, know your walk-away point.

Sometimes you’ve got to bend a little. Throw in the washer and get a deal done.

Pick someone who can close deals like they’re doing the Sunday crossword.

Have your docs in a row, like ducks, but less cute.

With the right prep, a touch of marketing genius, and a sprinkle of pricing psychology, you’ll be passing that baton off in no time.
