Bedroom Designs To Avoid

Bedroom Designs To Avoid


Let me first clarify by saying that these are tips to avoid when you are selling your home. When you are living in your home, I say you do whatever makes you happy. If you enjoy thick drapes, bright colors and 28 pillows on your bed, then by all means go get some thick drapes, paint the walls bright pink and stack those pillows! 

But when you are ready to sell your home, here's a list of tips from Realtor.com for you to think about. After all, the goal when selling your home is to present it in such a way that buyers fall in love with it.

Thick Drapes
     Remove thick curtains, which require a lot of vacuuming to keep dust at bay. Instead try Roman shades or woven blinds with black-out panels.

Cluttered Shelves
     Leave one or two shelves open and arranged neatly with books or other objects. Fill the rest of the shelves with baskets and bins of belongings.

Bright Paint Colors
     Avoid colors like pink and lime green, especially in kid's bedrooms, which indicates a long weekend of painting to buyers.

Overstuffed Rooms
     Pay attention to furnishings size and scale. If there is too much room or the bed is too big, the room will feel claustrophobic.

Towering Pillow Piles
     For most beds, limit the pillows to the ones you sleep on, and then a bolster or square European pillow.


And that's just the bedroom! When you are staging your home to sell, there is a lot to be done. The good thing is, if you call me, I can go through everything with you and get your home ready to attract the greatest number of serious buyers.

So go ahead, give me a call and let's get rid of those pillow piles!
