Dressing your Bathroom for House Sale
When you are trying to sell your home, it is common practice to ‘dress’ the house, so that it appeals to as many people as possible and nowhere is this more relevant than in your bathroom. A house that is on the market needs to be as neutral and uncluttered as possible and the bathroom is often a place where bits and pieces can accumulate without you even noticing. Therefore, the first thing you need to do is hide away all the bottles of shampoo, conditioner, shaving equipment and make-up. People will want to come into your bathroom and imagine how it will look with their own items in there.
Next, you need to ensure that the bathroom is clean, not just every day tidy, but absolutely bright and sparklingly clean. If your bathroom is extremely clean you send out a signal that you have cared for the home and that it has been well looked after, so enticing the prospective buyer to look on it in a more favourable light.
If you do have any very decorative items or objects that make a very bold statement, then they should be removed and put into storage until your house is sold. They will simply draw the eye of the viewer and, whilst they may love it, on the other hand they may find it completely unappealing. So err on the side of caution and be very conservative, then when the house is sold, you can re-apply your design flair to your new bathroom.
