If you have a choice, it is usually better to sell your home while it is still furnished. That way, prospective buyers can more easily imagine how it will look when they move in, even though their furnishings will be different. Generally homes that are furnished sell more quickly and for a higher price than vacant homes.

If you have to move out before you sell your home, consider leaving some furniture behind to help give the house a lived-in feel.
