Getting the House Ready to Sell: Disconnect Your Emotions

When conversing with real estate agents, you will often find that when they talk to you about buying real estate, they will refer to your purchase as a "home." Yet if you are selling property, they will often refer to it as a "house." There is a reason for this. Buying real estate is often an emotional decision, but when selling real estate you need to remove emotion from the equation.

You need to think of your house as a marketable commodity. Property. Real estate. Your goal is to get others to see it as their potential home, not yours. If you do not consciously make this decision, you can inadvertently create a situation where it takes longer to sell your property.
The first step in getting your home ready to sell is to "de-personalize" it.

"De-personalizing" is - to make impersonal.  This means, your house needs to show as neutral. This doesn't mean to remove all personal items, but it means to remove a majority of family pictures, religious items and other personal/emotional things.  Imagine yourself as a buyer, would you want a wall full of pictures glaring back at you?   Buyers want to be able to envision their things in the home. If they can not do this, they will move on to the next home.
