Declutter

The average home in the U.S. contains 300,000 items, and 25 percent of Americans claim to have a “clutter” problem. A cluttered home appears disorganized and cramped — not ideal to entice potential buyers. It’s no wonder 96 percent of Realtors recommend decluttering to their sellers before listing a home.

“When I meet with a potential seller, my priority is typically decluttering the space,” says Katy Barry, a Realtor in Massachusetts. “If the seller doesn’t make a concerted effort to remove clutter, buyers have a hard time actually seeing the home.”

If you have the time and energy, you can declutter yourself for free. However, if you don’t feel up to the task, lots of professional organizers out there will do it for you. A typical hourly rate is $50 to $60. Larger jobs that require more workers and time can cost more.
