Selling your home is almost always exciting. Cleaning and preparing the home for sale – not so much. It does not have to be overwhelming. If you follow a few basic guidelines, you can turn your house into the hottest home on the market.
1. Pack Away Personal Photos
While it may seem that Christmas photos of your family would make the house feel cozy and full of life, these items can actually distract buyers from the features of the home. Instead of seeing how beautiful your built-in bookshelves are, the potential buyers focus on the photos sitting on the shelf. Do a quick sweep of the home and carefully pack photos in a storage bin until it’s time to move. A bonus: you have at least one box ready for the big move before you even sell the home.
2. Lots of Light
If you don’t have money in your budget for house cleaning, consider hiring someone just to clean the windows. It’s one of the most time consuming (and overlooked) parts of cleaning, and it will make a huge impact when you open those curtains and blinds to let your home shine. Aside from location, the most desired feature for buyers is natural light!
3. Treat Them Like Guests
On your next trip to the grocery store, grab a $15 bouquet on the way out. Throw it in a vase on the kitchen counter, or put it in the entryway on a small table. Many Realtors will even bake fresh cookies in the home when they are having an open house. No time for that? Purchase a dozen fresh cookies for the weekend and plug in a cookie scented air freshener in the kitchen. Anything you might do for a guest is a welcome addition when someone is viewing your home and trying to picture themselves loving and living in it.
4. Walls Matter
You’ve heard it before: give the walls a fresh coat of paint before putting your home on the market. If you don’t have the time or money to paint the whole home, at least paint the entry and main living space and kitchen. If there is a color that may seem abrasive to some (a boy’s lime green bedroom or here in Tennessee a UT Vols orange), be sure to cover that with a nice neutral tone. No one wants to buy a home with a list of things to change if they don’t have to!
5. Closets, Closets, Closets
Here’s a trick for creating space where there might not be much. Pick a closet, and put the contents into three piles – one for giving away, one for pre-packing before the move, and one for keeping in the closet. You will clear out some major space making the closets more appealing to your guests and get some packing done at the same time.
6. Renting Storage Can Save Time and Money
All this pre-packing and clutter clearing may leave you with lots of boxes. What do you do with all these boxes when you are showing your home? Rent a mobile storage unit and keep it at a friend or family member’s home until yours sells. When it’s time to move into your new space, have the storage company move the unit to your new home, and voila – no need to load and unload another time. If you are hiring movers, less locations and time saved means money saved.

Color has the remarkable ability to evoke emotion and feeling – the colors you use in your space is a reflection of your taste and how you want to feel in your own space. Here at Lennar Maryland, we choose the colors and design our model homes specifically to make you feel at home, and if you’re searching for a little inspiration yourself look no further than the Pantone Color of the Year.
For 16 years, Pantone has named a new Color of the Year which then goes on to subtly dominate the world of design, seen on fashion runways and interior decorating everywhere. The decision is anything but random: thoughtfully chosen after gathering information from tastemakers in international fashion, entertainment, travel, and art industries, Pantone even takes into consideration socio-economic conditions to find a color that expresses what is taking place in the global zeitgeist (Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director at Pantone).
2015 COLOR OF THE YEAR: MARSALA
2015 was the year of Marsala – we saw the wine-colored hue bring a sophisticated, natural earthiness to our interiors and the nurturing and fulfilling undertones were a natural fit for eating spaces, accent pieces, and cozy areas. Though 2016 brings new trends to decorate our model homes, we will definitely still be seeing Marsala as a favorite in our model homes, as it brings a sense of warmth and richness into any space.

2016 COLOR(S) OF THE YEAR: ROSE QUARTZ AND SERENITY
For 2016, Pantone revealed an unprecedented TWO colors of the year – Rose Quartz and Serenity – describing this pale pink and soft blue as reflecting balance, wellness, tranquility, and the world’s current demand for mindfulness and an “antidote to modern day stresses”.
With 2016 on its way in, we’re looking forward to using these colors in our model homes and seeing how our homeowners utilize them in their own space. Who wouldn’t want to have soothing Serenity accents and relaxing Rose Quartz decor? It looks like we’re already ahead of the trend here at Lennar Maryland, with a couple of our rooms already decorated with the two:
Our Stanford model at St. Charles Towns used Serenity as their main wall color with white and cool accents, and the Kentwell model at Fieldstone Preserve opted to use Rose Quartz with bold colors to create a little girls’ dream room.
Don’t be afraid to use these colors on your walls, but also remember that even using them just as accent colors can bring a sense of tranquility to any room.

As always, you can see beautifully designed model homes of ALL colors, design, shapes and sizes in all of our Lennar Maryland communities by going on www.lennarmd.com as well as visiting the communities.
