Vlog: Decluttering, Organizing, and Staging, Oh My!

Decluttering, Organizing, and Staging, Oh My!

It’s that time of year when everyone has their New Year’s resolutions all lined out and still has the energy to try to keep up with their goals.

That being the case, now is a prime time to tackle some decluttering, organizing, and staging of your home! This is especially important if you’re planning to sell your home, but even if you aren’t going anywhere anytime soon, a clean and organized home can be a total blessing!

In this week’s vlog, Katie and discuss the value and benefits of taking time to clear out the things you don’t need. You can see our full discussion in the video below:

As we discuss in the video, one of the best things you can do when you decide to sell your home is to organize and declutter as part of your efforts to get your home market ready.

There have been tons of studies that show a staged home sells faster and for more money. But the same could probably be said of a home that’s neat, tidy, and clean.

Think about it – if you’re looking for a new home, how would you feel walking into a house that’s got things piled up on the kitchen counters and clothes overflowing out of closets? It’s not a good look…

When you walk into a home that’s clean and organized, however, the rooms look and feel larger, there’s an impression of more storage space, and your reaction to the property will likely be much more positive. All that for just a little elbow grease!

In fact, just give yourself five minutes a day to tackle a small organizational or decluttering project. Do one shelf, one counter, one table, and keep at it until your home is free of clutter.

Not only will your spaces look better, but you’ll feel better being in them!
