The formal dining room might have been a must-have in the not-so-distant past, but it's rapidly losing its meaning in today's households. Maybe you never (or nearly never) use your dining room because you have a casual dining space in your kitchen or living room, yet you have the bones of a house with space devoted to a formal dining room.

• Try a Home Office

As such, homes that can boast a quiet, comfortable, dedicated home office are top choices for buyers.

Does conventional wisdom about slow home sales during the winter holidays make you fearful of putting your house on the market? Over the 12-month period from September 2018 through August 2019, 20 percent of home sale closings occurred between December and February.

What the winter buyer pool lacks in quantity, it makes up for in motivation. Make the holidays merry and bright with these helpful tips for marketing Beavercreek homes for sale.

1. Post Video Tours and High-Quality Photos
   When temperatures are low, people are less likely to spend a weekend touring homes and more likely to turn to online listings.

It's generally worth the investment to hire a professional. If possible, use exterior photos taken in spring or summer.
