Clean Homes Sell Faster
Often when I meet with potential sellers they look for tips or suggestions on how to layout their furniture or what colour they could paint a room that would be appealing to buyers. But one simple, and low cost item that really helps to sell a home is a good, deep cleaning. Wash the walls, windows, carpets and every nook and cranny.
I've had sellers that owned a home for five years and maybe painted one room but really didn't do much, if any, upgrades. But one key thing they did do right; they had the house professionally cleaned. The feedback from the showings was great. They all commented on how well maintained the home was and it also sold in weeks. A clean home tells buyers you've maintained the home and take pride in it and it gives buyers a sense of ease in making the purchase.
Believe me, it will help to sell your home quicker. It's definitely worth the investment to hire a professional cleaner just before you list the home. They'll also notice things you may not. If funds are a problem, then take a full day to scrub the house yourself. Of course keeping it clean while it's listed is also key.
Happy Selling.
