I think everyone makes at least one mistake when they sell, but you can avoid the big ones. A lot of sellers overprice their homes at first and then have to drop the price anyway. Others don’t fix small things, and buyers notice more than you think. I found a list on
Utah Homes that talks about the most common mistakes—stuff like not decluttering, using bad photos, or being too stubborn during negotiations. I wish I’d paid more attention to staging my place the first time I sold. It made a huge difference the next time around.
