How Your Bedroom Can Help Sell Your Home......"SPECIALIZING in GREAT HOMES which did not SELL THE FIRST TIME"

A great master bedroom will help sell your home. But you don't have to spend a lot of money, time and effort trying to impress buyers. Following are 11 easy ways to spruce up your master for little money:

• De-clutter and de-personalize. Buyers want to see themselves in the master bedroom. Don't surround them with the trappings of your life.
• Clean, clean and clean some more.
• Make necessary repairs.
• Paint. You don't have to go for beige (or gray, which is the new beige), but emphasize the room's spaciousness with lighter colors. Don't forget the ceiling.
• Move some of the furniture out to add to an airy, uncluttered feel.
• Heavy drapes might be nice at night, but during the day they can feel confining. Take them down and buy inexpensive sheers. Add blinds for light control.
• Speaking of light, add more task and ambient lighting, and leave lights on to minimize shadows and illuminate dark corners.
• Buy a new duvet cover.
• Hang inexpensive artwork or a mirror and lose the family photos.
• Don't cover hardwood floors with carpeting or put furniture in front of a window with a view.
• Clean out the closets so buyers can see the space and decide if their clothes will fit.
