Start with condition, not a shopping list.
Walk through the property and note maintenance issues, unfinished work and questions buyers may raise. Gather available records for improvements. Discuss the list with Eddie before spending on cosmetic changes or assuming a major remodel is necessary.
Help each space read clearly.
Remove distractions, make rooms easy to move through and consider how furniture shows their purpose. Eddie emphasizes thoughtful presentation because buyers should be able to picture how the home works. The aim is a clear and accurate introduction, not hiding defects.
Get ready for the camera—and the showing.
Before photography, check lighting, surfaces and outdoor areas. Keep the home’s presentation consistent when buyers arrive. Discuss the media plan and showing logistics with Eddie so preparation supports your schedule. No individual improvement guarantees a particular selling price.
Build a property file before photo day.
Collect repair invoices, permit records, warranties and notes on known issues. Mark anything you cannot document as a question rather than filling the gap with an assumption. Eddie can help organize preparation and presentation; review the applicable disclosures with your agent. California DRE’s disclosure guide is a reference for that discussion, not a substitute for property-specific advice.
