Start with the buyer's first impression

Clean surfaces, strong lighting, simple rooms, and a welcoming entry can make the home easier to understand online and in person.

Do the repairs that remove doubt

You do not always need a major renovation. Often the best prep is fixing the small items that make buyers wonder what else has been deferred.

Build the launch plan before going live

Photos, pricing, showing access, listing copy, social promotion, and follow-up should be ready before the home hits the market.
