Homesellers: Step Away from the Shiplap
It's not unusual to want or need to do some updates when getting ready to sell your home. And with so many amazing home makeovers all over TV, it can be tempting to want to incorporate every up-to-the-second trend into your Atlanta home for sale remodeling project. But don't get too excited just yet.
Our real estate agents know what makes your home appealing to as many potential buyers as possible. Neutral paint, décor, and finishes that look modern, but not overly trendy, and design that doesn't look too personalized offer the kind of wide appeal that can sell your home faster. So if you're selling soon, here are a few home remodeling trends you'd be better off avoiding.
- Farmhouse chic. After years of over-saturation, this design trend is finally running out of steam. This includes elements like shiplap walls, farmhouse sinks, and distressed furniture. It's also a pretty specific style, so if you're selling you'll run the risk of turning off buyers that would prefer a different look.

What Do I Need to Update Before Selling My House?
It's a competitive market, and you want your home to stand out when prospective buyers knock on your door. The more dated the features and fixtures, the harder it will be to find someone who wants to schedule a date for closing. Before you add your home to the list of Atlanta homes for sale this year, the following are some updates that are well worth the investment.
- Roof - Your roof is the capstone of your home. A damaged roof raises red flags in the eyes of prospective buyers. If boards are soft, shingles are missing, or structural damage makes the roof unsound, buyers will drive down the road to the next property on their list.

Storage Unit Solutions for Selling and Moving On
Are you planning on selling your home and moving on to a new one in the near future? If so, you should know that making good use of a storage unit can help. As our real estate agents often advise home sellers, clearing out at least a third of what is now in your home can make it more appealing to buyers, helping you sell faster and possibly at a better price.
So how exactly should you use a storage unit to help you make your best sale on your home? Here are five ways storage units can help you make your home stand out from the crowd of Atlanta homes for sale:
- Use it to store personal items
Personal items, like family pictures, trophies, toys, knick-knacks, and books, are the things that make a house your home. While this is a good thing in everyday life, a homey look can make selling your home more difficult. Getting such items out of the house and into a storage unit helps depersonalize the home, giving potential buyers the opportunity to picture it as their new home.
