For most people, selling their home is an emotional experience. Many memories are tied up in a house. As your house goes on the market, you need to bear in mind an important thing – your home has just become a commodity. Your goal is to have other buyers see it as their potential home.  As difficult as it sounds, failure to make this emotional disconnect can cost you buyers.  Part of preparing a house for sale is to depersonalize it by removing family photos, trophies, knick-knacks, etc.  This allows buyers to visualize themselves in the space without being distracted.  A house with personality is great – just try to keep the “person” out of it.
