How to depersonalize your property

When staging your home, it’s important to depersonalize your property so potential buyers can imagine themselves living there. Here are a few things you should do: • Remove most decor and only display plants and wall hangings • Put away paperwork, medications and cleaning products • Remove personal items like family photos and children’s drawings • Put away toys and sports equipment • Tuck away trophies, framed certificates, diplomas and collectables • Remove religious objects, risqué artwork and controversial items

Taking steps to depersonalize your property will increase your odds of getting a great offer.
