Selling a home can be intimidating, but with the right preparation and planning, you can get the most value for your home. Here are some tips to help maximize your home value:

Make repairs
Ensure that all repairs and maintenance are taken care of prior to listing your home. Minor cosmetic fixes or updates, such as painting walls or refinishing cabinets, can make a big difference and needn’t cost a lost of money.
It doesn’t take a major overhaul or big-ticket projects to refresh your home’s appearance. Asking your real estate agent for suggestions can be very helpful.
Clean and declutter
Clean and declutter your home to create a tidy, well-kept appearance. This will help potential buyers envision themselves living in the space.
Be sure to remove family photos and personal belongings; this helps buyers put themselves at home in your house. Adding green plants can lend your home a freshness that is appealing.
Staging your home
Utilize professional staging services if necessary. Home staging is an invaluable tool that can help showcase the potential of each room to its fullest extent. Giving each room a purpose helps home buyers think about themselves in your home.

Oftentimes, potential buyers might not be able to look past your personal style to envision themselves in your home’s space. Using neutral furnishings is a smart choice.

Develop curb appeal
Make sure your yard and exterior are as appealing as possible. Curb appeal can be a major factor when buyers form their first impressions. Keep your yard’s grass cut, trim bushes and trees, and add some simple flowering plants to enhance your exterior, making it a welcoming part of your home.
Price your home right
Price competitively to attract potential buyers. Research the local market to ensure that you list your home at an attractive price point.
Your real estate agent is an invaluable resource for this process. Understanding what’s selling in your area and how other home compares will help you to assess your home’s value.
