Don’t forget to set the table kids!

If you have a particularly attractive or spacious dining room (and dining room set) set the table as if you were hosting a formal dinner party. Decorative placemats, napkins, a centerpiece, and pretty china can all be used to make your dining room area pop. You can of course get a lot of these supplies (even the china!) at the thrift store. (I love thrift stores!)


If your dining room set is looking a little worse for wear, cover it with a pretty table cloth along with covers for the chairs. Your buyers will marvel at how nice it all looks and picture themselves hosting dinner parties right there. (Even if they’ve never hosted a dinner party in their entire lives.)


Sellers will frequently gripe about how inconvenient it is to do things like this. I’m sure it is! Selling your home in general is pretty inconvenient. But remember, the faster you sell it, the less time you have to spend being inconvenienced, so I strongly encourage folks to suck it up, and do all they can to get that house sold as fast as possible, and for the best price possible.
