Get Your Living Room Ready To Sell

When selling your Lake of the Ozarks home, there are a few things you should do before putting it on the market. One of those things is staging your home. Staging is an important part of the selling process, as it will make your home look more inviting and potential buyers can see themselves living there if done properly. Your Lake of the Ozarks REALTOR has a few staging tips for your living to hopefully get potential buyers interested in your home.

Staging Tips For Living Room 

- Have shelves free of clutter. You want the shelves to be somewhat bare, so potential buyers can visualize their belongings there.

- Remove any personal items, such as family pictures. Again, you want the buyers to visualize themselves living in your home. When you depersonalize your home, it is easier for home buyers to picture themselves living there. 

- Painting your walls are an easy way to update and freshen up your home. It is relatively cheap and will make a big difference in appearance. If you do paint your home, neutral colors appeal to a wider audience. 

- Cleaning is very important. A dirty home leaves the appearance as if the home was not well cared for. Make sure you do a thorough cleaning of every room, not just the living room. 

- If your home has carpet, it may be a good idea to have it professionally cleaned. If your home has hardwood floors that are in poor shape, consider getting them refinished. 

- Pulling the furniture away from the walls can not only give the appearance of a bigger space, but it also creates an inviting conversation area. You may also want to consider removing some of the furniture as well. 

- If you have decor themes, stick with just one throughout the home. Your home should be uniformed throughout. Sticking to one theme may also help you get rid of some things as well. 


- Place fresh flowers or seasonal decor in your living room. If your real estate agent is holding an open house, place some snacks out. 

- Updating the lighting could help make your home shine. Don't depend on just one or two fixtures to light up the whole room. It is a good idea to have at least three types of lighting, which include ambient (general or overhead), task (reading or pendant) and accent (table or wall).
