Seven Steps to a Faster, More Profitable Home Sale

Clutter-free interiors allow potential home buyers to appreciate all that a home has to offer -- resulting in a shorter sales cycle and a higher selling price. The fewer items there are in a home, the easier it is for a home shopper to envision the space as their own!

1 If an item hasn't been used in three months, box it up and take it offsite.

2. Limit items in closets and drawers to make them seem more spacious.

3. Old files, books and memorabilia should be stored away from the house.

4. Remove excess and/or worn furniture to create more room.

5. Pack away off-season clothes.

6. Buyers value storage. Don't just stash items in the basement or the garage - take them offsite.

7. Remove excess items from decks, driveways and the yard, including kids toys and pool supplies.
