Every Picture Tells a Story

by Susan Gruenling on December 8, 2008

You see them on our desks, our refrigerators, our walls and even in our wallets. We all love to look at family photos. They conjure up that warm fuzzy feeling of love and comfort; but only when we are looking at photos of OUR family.

When you have your home on the market it is a good idea to remove or at least pare down on your family photos. When prospective Buyers are viewing your home it is often difficult for them to imagine themselves residing in a home with not only someone else’s furniture but with someone else’s family smiling back at them. The goal is to make it easy for potential Buyers to picture their own items and loved ones surrounding them. It is smart to de-personalize the house. You should remember that once your home goes on the market it is now a product. Retail stores hire designers to merchandise their products for maximum exposure and sales. You need to do the same with your product. You may need to make a few adjustments to turn your home into an inviting space that will appeal to many people.
