Can your emotions KILL the sale of your home?

Can emotions KILL YOUR DEAL? If you are selling your home, let go of your emotional attachement & you will sell your home faster and for more money. Here are some ways to "let go" & let potential buyers see it as THEIR home:
1. remove most of your personal photos from the home. This will allow the "buyers" to see the home as their own. 
2. De clutter closets & pantries (get a storage rental if necessary) I cannot tell you how important this is to the sale of your home.  MINIMIZE! MINIMIZE! Your home will look bigger, cleaner and allow the "buyers" to see their "stuff" fitting in the space. 
3. re-paint rooms a NEUTRAL COLOR. Again, very important.  A neutral color will insure that the "buyer" won't walk away thinking they HAVE TO PAINT right away which is an extra stress and an extra expense during an already stressful moving time. 
4. Take a WHITE GLOVE approach to your cleaning routine. You will be surprised how much we all overlook on an everyday cleaning basis due to our busy schedules.  A clean house will SHINE OVER A DIRTY HOUSE ANY DAY OF THE WEEK!
5.  Minimize furniture in each room.  I am not talking bare bones here...just take out knick, knacks and extra chairs, blankets, tables, etc... This will help make sure the "buyers" can mentally "fit" their posessions in the house.
