If you decide that you’re ready to put your house on the market, but aren’t sure if you can spring for a stager, here are some simple and fairly inexpensive steps from Debi Benoit, of Benoit Mizner Simon & Co. Real Estate, to make buyers fall in love with your property and get it off the market. iStockphoto.com
