Thinking about moving? Before you put your house on the market, close your eyes and remember back to when you bought your house. You probably looked at several homes, and maybe even had a checklist of what you wanted in a new home.

What was the first thing you noticed about your home?

• Was the furniture out-dated?
• Were the colors on the walls too strong or just too wrong?
• Was there lots of ‘stuff' everywhere?
• Was the home vacant?
• Were any repairs needed?

If you answered "yes" to any of those questions, chances are you didn't pay the full asking price for the home. Am I right?

Now open your eyes, and look at your home through buyer's eyes. Look around. When a buyer walks through your home, what do their eyes spy?

• A reason not to make an offer at all
• A chance to get a real deal on your home
• A place they can call home

Buyers decide within 8 seconds if they feel a connection with a home. And, if they view a home as needing work, they won't offer top dollar.
