An unoccupied home can look a little bare when it comes time to sell. Here are some things you should do before potential buyers come by. The post How to Sell an Empty Home appeared first on Andy Schildhorn, PREC.

In most cases, people are selling a property they live in and have to think about reducing clutter. Sometimes, though, the opposite is true: they are selling a home that is unoccupied and may look bare as a result. If that is the case for you, these tips could help you sell:

  1. Flaws can stand out more in an empty home – Spend some time to look for scuffs, cracks, nail holes, etc. Then, paint of repair them before any buyers come to view the property. This goes for anything that is looking worn or a little shabby.
  2. Consider how potential buyers will perceive your home – Make sure there is a clear focal point to attract buyers’ attention. Also, while empty rooms can seem bigger, they might also lack a sense of scale. Having at least some furniture in there makes it clear how the room will actually function, helping viewers to imagine their own furniture in the space.

Brandy is a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix with a serious love for belly rubs, fetch, and being your constant shadow. She’s sweet, affectionate, and always ready to flop over for tummy time! This big, bouncy girl handles beautifully and is incredibly people-oriented—so much so that being left alone makes her sad. She will not hesitate to vocalize when she feels lonely or may try to find an escape route to get to her people. Because of this, she’d thrive in a home where someone is around most of the time to shower her with attention and keep her company. Brandy is easily excitable and can be jumpy when making new friends with people, so she’s best suited to a home without kids. She knows “sit” and “drop it,” has a cute little auto-sit when she wants something, and will gently place her toys at your feet for fetch (which she LOVES and doesn’t destroy—bonus!). Brandy also insists on being the one and only furry royalty in your life. She doesn’t want to share her humans, her home, or her toys—so no other pets, please! She’s ready to rule her kingdom solo as the Queen Bee she knows she is. If you’ve got a secure yard, a good throwing arm, and room in your heart for a one-dog show, Brandy just might be your perfect match. Check out LAPS here for more adoptables .
