Staging a home to sell over the holidays

Are you trying to sell your home?  Many homeowners who want to sell their property take it off the market in December.

Some believe it's such a busy time with the holidays that no one is out looking at homes, but that's not the case.

Video: FOX 10's Anita Roman has the details on some staging tips for a home sale during the holidays.

HomeSmart agent Yamile Hirsh's tips to sell a home over the holidays:

1. Keep it warm
2. Keep it lit
3. Be an equal-opportunity decorator/buyer. Not sure what qualifies? "No matter what your religion is, you're not going to feel offended by a nutcracker."
4. Keep it clean
5. Go light on lights
6. Mind the tree
7. Make sure it smells good
