This is the chaepest way to make the home look bright.  Turn on all the lights!  Just don't forget to turn them off when leaving so the sellers don't get a huge electric bill.

I've never had a client ask me to show them a dark and dreary house---light sells!

I always tell my sellers to leave lights on & let the sun shine in whenever possible before a showing. Another nice touch is to leave soft music playing in the background or leave a tv on with the home channel or the food network on. The buyers just love it & seem to linger there a bit longer

You're speaking my language! I find myself saying, "Open the blinds all the way" in virtually every house I enter!

Thanks for stopping by my blog, Bill. Looking forward to meeting you at the show on the 20th!

Geoff you are so right too bad there always seems to be someone that doesn't bother to turn off the lights

Yeah Norma, Caves are out this year :)

Joan I hadn't considered having the Food network or Home Channel on TV , Good idea I'll try it.
