These six home sellers were advised by their Realtors to make their beds every day. They all complied. However…
Was there more she could have done to the room?

She might want to iron out a few more staging issues in this room.

How about clearing out the rest of the room before selling?

The dog thinks this room looks perfectly fine.

Technically, the bed is made, but…

It’s a tidy bedroom, but does the bookcase have to be in front of the window?
