Getting ready to sell? Here’s a simple 2-week plan to make your home market-ready—fast.

Days 1–2: Declutter
Clear out closets, counters, and personal items. Pack or donate what you don’t need. Less stuff = more space.

Days 3–4: Deep Clean
Scrub floors, windows, appliances, and bathrooms. A clean home shows better and photographs beautifully.

Days 5–6: Small Repairs
Fix leaky faucets, patch holes, replace bulbs, tighten handles. Small fixes make a big difference.

Days 7–8: Depersonalize
Remove bold décor and personal photos. Stick to light, neutral tones so buyers can picture themselves in the home.

Days 9–10: Boost Curb Appeal
Mow the lawn, tidy up landscaping, and clean the front door. First impressions matter!

Days 11–12: Stage Simply
Rearrange furniture to show off the space. Add fresh flowers or light touches to make the home feel welcoming.

Day 13: Pro Photos
Hire a professional photographer and finalize your pricing and marketing with your agent.

Day 14: Go Live!
List your home and get ready for showings—you're ready to impress.
