Getting your house ready to put on the market can seem like a massive undertaking. From cleaning to staging, you might not know where to begin. In search of advice? Break each room into sections, and tackle the room head on with this house selling checklist.

Blue and green living room

Living Room

  • Use pillows and throw blankets to soften up the room.
  • Clear off the coffee table.
  • Store toys out of sight.

 

Warm colored dining room with place settings

Dining Room

  • Clear off the dining table—only leave the centerpiece.
  • Remove extra chairs from the table.
  • Set the table with 4 to 6 place settings.

 

Modern kitchen

Kitchen

  • Clean the appliances—stove, oven, and microwave.
  • Remove magnets from the refrigerator.
  • Empty the trash can before each showing.

 

Bedroom with gray walls and decor

Bedrooms

  • Invest in new bedspreads if necessary.
  • Remove distracting wall decor.
  • Keep daily necessities in either bins, drawers, or closets.

 

Large bathroom

Bathrooms

  • Display a new bottle of hand soap.
  • Replace shower curtains if necessary.
  • Clean any moldy areas.

 

Tidy laundry room

Laundry Room

  • Store soap and supplies in a cupboard.
  • Clear out all clothing.
  • Keep all surfaces clean.

 

Although it will take time and effort to get your house ready to show, just remember—the better it looks, the shorter the time it will stay on the market!
