In order to get a better deal, the sellers generally try to decorate their houses before presenting it to the buyers. It is important to present your product in the best possible manner so that it sells easily.

Mark Nash, a Chicago based realtor, states that the buyer would like the house if it were decorated according to the latest trends. Nash, who constantly surveys the real estate market and gets himself updated with the latest changes occurring in home designs, has prepared a list of do's and don'ts that can be used as guidelines before presenting the house to buyers.

He feels that buyers are making changes in their home designs to suit their changing life styles. For instance, adding a luggage room will be an advantage for those who are frequent travelers or providing an extra laundry room just besides the master suite as an extra comfort. Apart from this many new trends have come into the market such as use of chandeliers, fireplaces, use of natural colored decorative pieces like a terracotta style wall hanging, wooden floors and glossy finish that gives a grandeur look to the home.

Apart from these do's, there are certain don'ts, which have to be considered. These include use of less glass cabinets in the kitchen, avoiding installation of bowl-type bathroom sinks, proper decoration of window moldings and avoiding concrete in the construction of exterior walls. However, most of the times people tend to forget certain vital points such as proper ventilation and illumination, ensuring that all the electrical wires and sockets are properly sealed and functioning well and that all the taps in the bathrooms and kitchen are not leaking. These are also very important in decreasing or increasing the value of a house.
