Leave Room for Their Imagination
**Don't make every room perfect.**
It sounds backwards, but when every room looks like a magazine, buyers often admire the home instead of imagining themselves living in it.
Leave just enough "blank canvas" for buyers to mentally move in. An empty reading nook becomes *their* reading nook. A spare bedroom becomes *their* nursery, office, or gym.
The less buyers are reminded that it's **your** home, the easier it is for them to believe it could become **theirs**.
That's the psychology behind creating an emotional connection.
