Get your Lake Norman home market-ready with Nagy Properties' interior prep tips. Start by decluttering and depersonalizing each room to help buyers envision their own style. Deep clean carpets, floors, and surfaces, and address any minor repairs or touch-ups. Freshen up walls with a neutral coat of paint and ensure all lighting fixtures are clean and functional. Organize closets and storage spaces to showcase their potential. For expert guidance and support, contact us at 704-533-3838.
