How to Get a Home Ready for Market in Just 10 Days: Spring Edition
Posted: May 15, 2025
Spring is a great time to sell — buyers are motivated, and the Upstate of South Carolina is blooming with curb appeal. But what if you’re short on time? Here's how to get your home market-ready in just 10 days.
Day 1: Start with a Plan
Set your timeline, call your real estate agent, and book key services like photography and landscaping. You’re on the clock — so prioritize what matters most.
Day 2–3: Declutter and Depersonalize
Clear counters, remove personal photos, and pack away anything you don’t use daily. Think "clean, simple, and neutral."
Day 4–5: Clean Like You Mean It
A deep clean makes a huge difference. Focus on kitchens, bathrooms, windows, and baseboards. Consider hiring help if needed.
Day 6: Boost Curb Appeal
Mow, edge, mulch, and plant fresh flowers. First impressions happen in the driveway — make it count.
Day 7: Quick Repairs Only
Fix minor issues buyers will notice: leaky faucets, squeaky doors, burned-out lights. Skip major renovations — no time.
Day 8: Stage Key Rooms
Highlight your home’s best features. Arrange furniture to open space, set the dining table, and add a few spring touches like fresh towels or a bowl of lemons.
Day 9: Professional Photos
High-quality photos help your home shine online. Don’t settle for cell phone pics — your first showing is on the internet.
Day 10: Go Live!
Your home hits the market. Be ready for showings, and trust your agent to help you manage the pace.
