The following 12 steps are a way to get a good head start on preparing to sell your home.
房子上市前，为了确保潜在买家们对您房子的第一印象深刻，产生他们对您房子的兴趣，积极参于上市后的开放日，以了解更多. 以下12个房子上市前的准备和建议，供您参考！
1.Schedule a Title V inspection- if your home using private sewerage.
如果您的房子是使用的私人化粪池，那么请您在房子上市前就预约化粪池检验公司来检验，只有在您的化粪池通过了检验报告，买家们才能顺利贷到款，房子才能顺利成交。
2. Welcome buyers. Make your front door visible and accessible to buyers. Paint the door, clear debris and clutter from the walkway and yard, mow the lawn and prune hedges. Pot or plant colorful annuals and perennials to attract attention from the street. Fix broken screens, doorbells, roof tiles, shingles and outdoor lighting, and replace your doormat. Exterior defects can make a poor first impression on buyers.
欢迎门厅，确保前厅进门口干净整洁。清除走道和院子里的杂草和杂物，精心修剪草坪和绿化。增添一些鲜艳色彩的植物以吸引买家们的注意力，使院子更显生机盎然。修复和维护前门区域比如，重新刷漆门，门铃确保正常使用，门口路灯检测，屋顶检测等等，更换新的美观的门垫。
3. Make it sparkle. Cleanliness implies a home has been well taken care of, so deep cleaning can win points with buyers. Buyers scrutinize homes, especially kitchens and bathrooms. Recalk and repaint to give these grime-prone rooms a fresh and clean look. Clean rugs and carpets to eliminate unsightly stains or dinginess and eliminate odors. Tidy each room, including cabinets, closets and the garage, before showing. And if it seems daunting to do all that cleaning yourself, consider hiring a professional cleaning company to take care of all of it for you.
确保您家一层不染的干净 ，清洁意味着一个家得到了很好的养护，所以深度清洁房屋可以为买你的房子赢得加分。 通常买家们都要仔细检查房屋，尤其是厨房和浴室。 重新装修和重新粉刷，会让这些容易沾染污垢的房间焕然一新。 深度清洗地毯并尽量消除遗留的污渍和异味。 仔细整理每个房间，包括橱柜、壁橱和车库。在开放日之前， 如果自己打扫卫生不能达到效果，请考虑聘请专业的清洁公司上门打扫。
4. Start packing. Cramped and cluttered rooms turn buyers off and make your house look smaller. A home packed with your personal belongings also makes it difficult for others to envision living there. Start by storing away excess furniture, toys and personal decorations, such as family photos. Pack up things you don't use on a daily basis, and put them in storage or ask a friend to hold onto them. Decluttering your house also gives you a head start on your move.
着手打包。 狭窄杂乱的房间会让买家望而却步又让房子看起来更小。尽量减少私人物品的展示，因为这很容易让买家们感觉自己是在参观别人的房子，而没有置身如家的感觉。收起多余的家具，小朋友的玩具，比较私人的装饰品，还有一些挂在墙上的家庭照片等等，及时整理家里的杂物也会让你在搬家时比较得心应手。
5. Paint wisely. A well-done, no-frills paint job is all you need. Put a fresh coat of paint on white or beige walls, and repaint walls that have eccentric or unconventional colors. Nature- and spa-inspired neutral colors, such as taupe and subtle gray, are the best choices. Definitely don't forget the trim and molding either. And a fresh paint job on outdated or worn cabinetry goes a long way, too.
明智地刷墙。找一位专业并且经验丰富的刷墙师傅， 给墙面换上一层新鲜的涂料，颜色可选白色或米色，以遮盖你家原先比较个性化或非常规颜色的墙面。 也可考虑自然的中性色，如灰褐色和微妙的浅灰色，也是是比较好的选择。 同时不要忘记给过时或破旧的橱柜重新上漆，完工后保准让您的家有焕然一新的感觉，相信我重新刷墙很有必要。
6. Fix the small stuff. Repair or replace broken or outdated hardware throughout your home. You can install new door handles, faucets, towel bars and curtain rods -fixtures that are readily visible to homebuyers - rather inexpensively. New hardware in the bathroom, kitchen and on windows and doors also improves the functionality and safety of these components.
修理小细节。 维修或更换家里损坏或过时的配件。 比较您可以考虑安装新的门把手、水龙头、毛巾杆和窗帘杆等等。细心的买家们很容易关注到这些小细节，不放过细节会给您的房子加分不少，小细节大改变。
7. Update lighting. Replace decorative light fixtures that no longer fit your home's cleaner, fresher look. Install new bulbs with the appropriate lighting for specific areas of your home. For example, ambient, low-key lighting fills a room, whereas directional or task lighting works better in areas like a reading nook. Use accent lighting to highlight focal points in a room, such as the artwork above a mantle, to draw buyers' attention to certain selling points.
更新灯饰。 如果您刚刷了墙面或者更换了家具，那么请考虑更换不再适合您家风格的装饰灯具吧！安装跟家里装修匹配的灯具，也会给您的房子大大的加分不少。如果实在不想太折腾，也可以考虑更换灯泡，安装具有特定照明的新灯泡在你家的各个区域。 例如，柔和，低调的灯光用在您的睡房，而明亮的灯光用在阅读角等区域， 使用聚光照明以突出房中的焦点，例如装饰柜上方的艺术品，以吸引买家注意某些卖点等等。
8. Frame windows. Ensure you have the right window treatments, which enhance natural brightness and boost the appearance of a home. Window treatments also can impact a room's temperature because they reduce or increase the amount of light entering the space. Adjust window treatments appropriately when showing your home in the mornings, afternoon and evenings.
窗饰，确保使用正确的窗户装饰，因为窗饰也会影响房间的明亮度和室内的温度，它们会减少或增加光线进入室内的空间。
9. Set the table. Fresh, decorative flowers in the kitchen or on the dining room table are always a nice touch. Also, keep place settings handy for your tables so you can quickly set them out right before showings or an open house. Pull out all the formal stops for a dining room, and keep the table casual in the kitchen.
使用鲜花来装饰或点缀您的餐桌或厨房，也是比较推荐的。在开放日前预备好餐桌上的摆设和餐具。厨房和餐厅也是家里比较吸引人眼球的重要位置。
10. Hide unsightly everyday items. Don't leave children's toys and pet belongings out in the open during showings and open houses. Move litter boxes, pet dishes, toys, animal crates and kids' entertainment to less conspicuous areas of the home, such as an outdoor storage unit or garage before each showing or open house. Also think about where you can store things like dirty laundry and dirty kitchen sponges .
隐藏不太雅观的日常用品。 移走孩子的玩具和宠物物品，移动垃圾箱，宠物餐具，玩具、孩子娱乐用品等搬至家里不太显眼的地方，比如室外的储藏室或者车库里。另外还需要考虑哪里可以隐存脏衣服和脏厨房之类的东西。
11. Don't forget the back. Keep your backyard looking spacious and functional. Plant or pot colorful flowers and keep the landscaping trimmed and neat. Consistently pick up after your pets so buyers feel comfortable touring the yard.
别忘记后院的打理， 要保持您的后院看起来既宽敞又实用。这里即是家人朋友聚餐烧烤的地方，也是孩子们户外运动的地盘。开放日前保持草坪和绿化都有精心的修剪。不要把您的宠物留在家里，尽量让买家们可以在更加舒适的环境下参观您的家。
12.Hide valuables- From art to jewelry, keep your treasures are out of sight, either locked up or stored off-site. You can’t trust everyone who comes into your house, sometimes things disappear during an open house, take care to hide your valuables or move them to a safe space away from your home。
保管好您的贵重物品 - 从艺术品到珠宝，不要让您的有价值的宝贝随意展示在家里，妥善的锁好或存放好。 你不能相信进入你家的每一个人，你很可能在开放日的时候丢失它们，重要的事情再提醒一遍：请确保收藏好您的贵重物品或将它们搬移到比较安全地方。
