I have appraised thousands of cars as a dealer in my career and something that always amazed me is how many people bring me a car that is DIRTY...I don't mean just filthy on the exterior, but more importantly, the interior. If you have ratty flootrmats , dump them and replace them with some clean cheap mats from an auto parts styore. Clean glass, clean leather - it does not have to be detailed but I've seen popcorn, trash and other things that just make the car look old.

the other thing when selling privately is the funds transaction. Specify cashiers check or wire transfer...and until it clears, no car.
