How to have an "Insta-Worthy" Listing 📸

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

When getting ready for photographs AND showings, here are some things to keep in mind--

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

First things first, declutter. I’ve rarely seen a home that couldn't use a little decluttering.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🏆 Make sure you remove tchotchkes, personal photos, sports trophies, religious memorabilia, magnets on the fridge and any stacks of mail.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🧺 Decorative baskets are nice for storing rolled up towels and extra blankets or for hiding things like toys and pet supplies.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🌿 Add greenery – a vase of fresh flowers in the kitchen, a potted succulent on the bathroom counter and some green plants in simple pots for the living room.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

💡 Light it up - the brighter, the better! Remove heavy drapes and worn blinds. To increase your natural light, have your windows cleaned and store the window screens.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🖼 Add pops of color to your (hopefully neutral) wall paint colors. These could be incorporated via rugs, throw pillows, framed artwork and decorative vases.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🧼 Deep clean your house so your floors, countertops and appliances are looking shiny and new.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Save so you remember how to prep your home for sale!
