Prepare well for showings! Homes tend to sell more quickly and
for higher prices when they show their best! Before each showing...
- Pick up all unnecessary items from counters, floors and stairs
(newspapers, magazines, mail, toys, clothing, recreation gear)
- Turn on all lights, even those in closets and storage rooms (make
your home as light and bright as possible)
- Open all drapes, shades, and blinds (unless view is offensive)
- Be sure all beds are made neatly and attractively
- Be sure all dirty dishes are in the dishwasher or washed and put
away
- Be sure all kitchen appliances and coutertops are "sparkling"
clean
- Keep pets out of sight (pet lovers will be distracted, pet dislikers
might be "turned off")
- Keep children out of rooms being shown and don't let them follow
prospects around!
- Eliminate distracting sounds and turn of soft, pleasent background
music in all rooms with radios
- Keep air fresheners in closets, bathrooms and kitchen. Be especially
careful to keep kitchen odours fresh and inviting (coffee brewing
or a cinnamon coffeecake baking in the oven have a lasting, inviting
effect)
- Light a fire in the fireplace for a toasty effect
- Place fresh attractive towels in kitchen and baths
- Keep front door scrubbed clean and inviting (it's the first and
last impression - make it a good one!)
- Keep a well manicured lawn and neatly trimmed shrubs
"set the stage" to make the best impressoin on each prospective
buyer!
