Why is it important to have your house be vacant when selling?

Why is it important to have your house vacant when you’re selling your home? Here are the top 3 reason it can be beneficial:

1. It allows the house to be professionally staged. Furniture scale is extremely important to help make your house appear larger, brighter and more open. Removing your personal items can have a significant outcome on the sales price.

2. It allows potential buyers to visualize the space as their own: If your house is cluttered or has personal items everywhere that might distract from the house’s features and it can be harder for buyers to see the potential in the property.

3. It makes it easier to show your house because a buyer’s agent can show your house to their client when it’s convenient for them. This typically results in more showings and your home being on the market for fewer days, which results in a higher sales price.

It’s worth noting that not every home can or should be sold vacant, but for some properties and some sellers, it can make the process of selling a home easier and more efficient.
