Clean Homes Sell – Top 10 Cleaning Tips

This post was inspired by Gary Wortol's post: Why Cleaning a Home Top to Bottom Sells a Home. Gary gives the why and I give the how!

The easiest and cheapest project anyone can do to increase selling your home is clean, bar none!  Every buyer likes a clean, well maintained, fresh smelling home! It can be the difference between an offer and moving on!

1. Use Windex Glass Cleaner on pictures, glass covered art, chandeliers with crystals, electronics, ceiling light fixtures and any glass surfaces. They will sparkle and look brand new!

2. Clean all kitchen appliances. If you have stainless steel, you can use olive oil to bring back their shine.

3. Use rolled lint tape – it will take dust off curtains, lamp shades, couches, bedspreads and throw pillows; it’s easier and more effective than vacuuming.

4. Wipe down baseboards, walls, door handles, using a mixture of Mr. Clean and water – works great and smells like lemon.

5. Bathroom – use bleach to rid your bathroom of mildew and grim. Mix with water and put into an empty spray bottle and spray entire shower, sink, tub, toilette and vanity.

6. Vacuum rugs, floors, area rugs. Make sure you get all corners and move furniture if necessary to get hard to reach places.

7. Use Swiffer Dusters with an extendable handle to get dust and cobwebs out of corners, ceilings, walls, floor and crown molding and any hard to reach places.

8. Polish wood furniture and bring back its shine and luster using lemon Pledge. In a study it was found that the most common scent people agree on is lemon – it’s the smell of clean.

9. Rent your own or hire a carpet cleaning service – not only will it clean your rugs, it will take out any odors caught in the fibers.

10. Mop up hardwood floors and make them shine. There are many products you can use found right in your grocery store.

One thing all buyers agree on is they all love a clean, great smelling home and it's the cheapest fix you can do yourself!

Clean homes are a plus on the market.  Nothing spoils a home's appeal like uncleanliness.
