Selling your home during the holidays doesn\u2019t mean you have to forego the
seasonal cheer, but it does require a strategic approach. Holiday
decorations can make your home feel inviting, but they should also appeal
to potential buyers. Here\u2019s how to strike the right balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Four Tips for Holiday D\u00e9cor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Keep it Simple and Neutral \u2013 When it comes to d\u00e9cor, simple is best.
    Replace bold, personalized items with classic wreaths with white lights and
    neutral tones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Showcase Your Home\u2019s Best Features \u2013 Use decorations to highlight
    your home\u2019s strengths. A simple garland draped over a mantel can draw
    attention to the fireplace, while a small tree near a big picture window can
    accentuate the view. Avoid covering key features, such as bannisters or
    kitchen counters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Scale Down \u2013 If you are normally the brightest home on the block, this
    is the time to scale down. This is not the time for big inflatables in the yard
    or blinking lights on every tree. Soft, tasteful lights and a welcoming wreath
    on the door is a better choice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Stay Subtle with Scents \u2013 You may love the strong scent of cinnamon
    or pine, but it can be overwhelming to potential buyers. Choose fresh
    instead. Most Christmas tree lots offer fresh wreaths and swags throughout
    the season and provide a lovely smell that isn\u2019t artificial.
    The holidays are here. If you have your home on the market, you can still
    celebrate. But remember that simple is best. Not only does it make the
    home cheery, but does not distract potential buyers<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
