● Turn on all lights in the house - use the highest wattage lamps will allow.
● Pull up blinds and open window treatments - let the light in. Make sure windows are clean and streak proof.
● Place fresh flowers throughout the house - living room, dining room, powder room and master bedroom etc...
● Make sure all trash cans are emptied. Take garbage, diapers, and cat and dog litter boxes out of the home.
● Remove pets from property if possible - outside at least.
● Set thermostat to a comfortable temperature - cooler is better then warmer.
● Make sure house smells fresh and clean.
● Make sure all rooms are "staged" - table set, fresh towels in bathrooms etc.
● Make sure all beds are made, floors are swept or vacuumed.
● Do not park cars in the driveway, leaving a great first view of your home.
● Turn answering machine on low, so buyers can't hear incoming messages.
