Photo Ready Checklist
Declutter
Get rid of all of it! We want your buyers to imagine how they will use the space, not looking at all your stuff. Do a good job decluttering and your home selling process and the rest of this checklist will be so much easier!
Pro Tips
Offsite storage would be ideal, but we can’t all afford that and some items we need for our daily lives. Here’s some tips on where to hide that stuff and help you more easily keep your home nearly show ready at all times.
We don’t typically shoot inside cabinets, closets, garages, or small tool sheds. Making these great places to hide all that clutter!
Under the sink cabinet - Nobody wants to see your used soap, toothbrush, shampoo, sponge, dish rag, etc. Storing it under the sink keeps it handy and out of sight.
Move those counter top appliances and containers to the pantry, it will only take a few seconds to get them when needed.
Top drawer - all that stuff you put on horizontal surfaces can be stuffed into the top drawer of a table/chest/etc. Find somewhere that’s still convenient, but out of sight.
