Hot Seller Tips
• Do not use oversized furniture and remove all small excess items to
create a sense of space and ‘flow’
• I recommend using a large rug in the Living Room to add softness and
warmth
• Add scatter cushions and throw rugs to your sofa as they are inviting
and make buyers want to sit down and linger in the room
• Bookshelves should not be filled entirely with books! Fill up only 50%
of the available shelves – and don’t only use books. Add some small
picture frames, simple vases and décor items
• If you have a fireplace, make sure the picture or mirror above it is in
proportion (ie. not too small so it looks lost, and not too large so it looks
squashed)
• Remove family photos
• Remove small ‘knick-knacks’ and replace with a few well-chosen larger
accessories
• Coffee tables complete a living area as they make the room look lived
in and more ‘usable’, and I would always recommend using one if you
have the space. However, I often see coffee tables that are either too
large, heavy and dark OR too small and looking ‘lost’. Make sure you
consider the proportion, colour and style of this important piece, and
add a few books or magazines and some accessories to create instant
appeal
