I didn't catch the show, but I did come across this list of HGTV's 25 Biggest Real Estate Mistakes compiled from top real estate experts. They do list "Waiting until Spring to put your house on the market". Stating that you should show off your "seasonal attributes". I've always heard the opposite, only because that is the busiest season. They also mentioned "failing to market your home..." properly.
Guess what the #1 mistake was?
"Failing to Showcase Your Home and Making Small Cosmetic Changes". In a nutshell, Not hiring a professional home stager to come in and prepare your home to help it sell faster!
Number 2 was Pricing Your House Too High. I think all will agree with that one!

Glad you posted this Cindy! It's a great thing to share with Realtors and sellers to show them we're not the only ones who think Staging is crucial!
I found this a while back and often forward to agents...it's a great list.
Anne
It was a good show, and a good list, especially since staging was top of the list. T
Annie-I agree, it's a great list to show realtors, home buyers, and sellers.
Anne-I just came across it.
Terrylynn-I missed the show, but Staging being at the top of the list has to tell you somethlng.
