Girls.. I appreciate the input about my clutterd up home, although I didnt really ask for it, Chat Icon

All i was simply trying to do here is say hey, Im selling my house!!!
Here are a few quick pictures that were taken , so that people can get an idea of what it looks like. Otherwise Id be asked for pics ?
We lisited with the realtor last minute & last minute took pics while my house was & IS decorated for Halloween. So instead of having a listing with NO pictures, this is what WE chose to do ...

Although I do appreciate your advice, I didnt say , hey , what do u think of these pictures, LOL ..

Im not a genius, but this isnt the 1st house Ive owned or sold. So I do have a general idea of how to go about it. Was just passing on the word that Im selling..

I wish that my post got more interest in it as far as the sale instead of the clutter inside & out, the pots & pans & the soup can ....

Tone, I think the girls were giving you advice only because you are posting to sell it fairly quick and it will only help.

I can say, that these pictures do her house no justice and it is a beautiful home!!

I know it may be hard not to take it personally, but everyone has been trying to help you based on their experiences. Pictures are very important in terms of getting people interested in seeing the place.

Your pictures aren't bad, but the larger you can make your kitchen/counter space appear, the better. When I look at houses, I look for a larger kitchen/plenty of counter space.

Good luck with selling. Chat Icon

Re: OPEN HOUSE THIS WKND

Please don't be offended. No one here is trying to insult you or your home. By posting your link, you are showing your listing. You are getting opinions from many experienced buyers and sellers.
You stated that you want to sell your house quickly, so everyone was giving you suggestions on what you can do to help make this happen.
Your house looks very cozy and comfortable, like a house that is enjoyed and lived in. But to sell it, you want to maximize the house's best aspects. By having pots, pans, etc out, you are hiding things from a potential buyer.
By having up personal items such as pictures, some potential buyers may have a hard time seeing your house as somwhere they can live, they may be seeing it as YOUR home. These thing may sound trivial and stupid, but with so many houses on the market, why not do everything simple to maximize your chance of selling?
