Staging Tip #1-The First 30 Seconds

First impressions do make a difference.  Most home buyers make up their mind about a house in the first 30 seconds. It doesn't matter how great your house really is but peeling paint, dusty furniture and even dishes in the sink can turn off most prospective home buyers.  It's not a matter of getting them through the door but rather what they'll see when they cross the threshold. So dust the furniture, cover your old couch and clear away the cobwebs gathering outside your front door.  A little elbow grease can go a long way to selling your house without sacrificing the bottom line.
