Tips for Selling Your Home During the Holiday Season.
Selling your home during the holidays can be a tough decision to make. Holiday decorations go against the number one rule when showing your home – keep everything impersonal. It is very hard to find a balance between selling your home and celebrating the season. Below are a few helpful to do’s and don’ts to help you show your Louisville home during the holidays.
DON’T decorate the exterior of your home any earlier than 2 weeks before the holiday.
DON’T leave your decorations up for any longer than 1 week after the holiday
DON’T congest your home with decorations.
DON’T use holiday lawn ornaments
DON’T forget to salt your driveway and pathways and clear all snow and ice before a showing.
DO keep decorations to a minimum. Don’t let your decorations take away from some of the great features your home offers.
DO consider purchasing a smaller tree. A large 10” tree can crowd a room and make it feel smaller.
DO try to stick to non-specific holiday themes. Winter themes with garland, pinecones etc.
DO add to the exterior appeal of your home by adding some color with mums or poinsettias.
DO add a holiday welcome mat.
