Great advice for getting your house ready to sell. I read her description of what it's like for a buyer to know that they've found the right home, and I had immediate flashbacks of when I found my current house. I walked in and knew it was the right place! The tips here range from how to declutter to how to look at your house through "buyers' eyes" to how to "dynamicize" it to create that feeling of comfort and enable a buyer to imagine living in the house. The book includes a lot of details and examples as well as helpful checklists. Above all, it is written in an upbeat, empowering way. Selling a house is a lot of work - and Martha Webb is a great advisor and cheerleader to have on your side.
