Creating a blank canvas when presenting a property for sale
One of the top questions that homeowners ask at the 'valuation-stage' of their move, is whether there is anything they should do before marketing their home. A percentage of buyers have the imagination to see through anything and picture their own things in a property, however similarly there are plenty of buyers that you want to appeal to who have less imagination & become easily distracted by overwhelming personal possessions.
The goal when presenting a property is to offer viewers the chance to easily imagine how it would look with them living in it. As a result, you can find that too many personal possessions left out on display can potentially make this harder to picture. Use the time leading up to a potential move to de-clutter & put anything in storage that is superfluous to the look you are aiming for (whilst not stripping the place bare of course!).
