Visually Create More Space

Buyers want the most house their money can buy. A large house with a choppy floor plan and small rooms can feel less spacious than a smaller home with an open floor plan.

Here are some things to do to visually create more space:

* Position mirrors in the right places to make a room appear larger. Make sure the mirrors reflect what you want to see more of, such as a favorite painting or a lovely window.

* Choose a light color scheme to help open up a room. White, cream, pearl gray, or soft yellow seem more inviting and open because they reflect light.

* Clear out the clutter. Keep decorative objects to a minimum. Porcelain figurines are distracting and can be easily broken. Pick up newspapers and magazines. Put away--or pack away--unnecessary items from countertops in the kitchen and baths. Clutter can make rooms seem smaller than they are.

* Minimize the amount of furniture you have in each room. Either sell it or store it away.
A clean, well-maintained, and spacious home is not only more marketable, but can often command a higher price.
