It appears lots of people got an early start on Christmas and Holiday decorating! Maybe it’s the late date for Thanksgiving. Or great weather to put up outside decorations.
Over the years most people accumulate a variety of Christmas/holiday decorations- but if you’re selling your Cincinnati home don’t feel obligated to display everything. Simple decorations both inside and outside are the best way to go.
The giant inflatable Santa on the front porch, which obstructs the view of the house, followed by wall-to-wall decorations inside every room, can be overwhelming. Over-decorating doesn’t allow buyers to visualize themselves living there.
And make sure exterior cords running all over the property are secured or well-marked so nobody trips.
Restrain yourself from over-the-top religious or political decorations. A nativity scene placed outside is probably ok, however, when decorating the interior I think sellers need to show some restraint. Try to keep decorations as neutral as possible.
Finally, use decorations that complement or coordinate with your interior decorating. We’ve all inherited or purchased funny obnoxious decorations that have become part of the holiday “tradition”. While you have your house for sale, leaving those items in their boxes is best.
