Your agent is bringing a potential buyer to your home in 15 minutes. What can you do to make your home presentable in such a short time? Follow these quick tips to get your home ready for its best showing when you have 30 minutes or less notice.
Start where the potential buyers will start:
- Make sure that the front door presents well
- Sweep steps, if needed
- Pick up any out-of-place objects and store them away quickly
Head inside:
- Open window treatments and turn on lights
- Put any dirty dishes in the dishwasher
- Make the beds
- Put any dirty laundry inside the washing machine
If you still have time:
- Run a quick vacuum and/or sweeper to give carpets and floors a fresh look
- Wipe down counters and tabletops
- Warm some vanilla on the stove to give the house a welcoming scent
It would be wonderful to have your home in showcase condition 24 hours a day, but we understand that you live there. It is important to present your house in the best light and make it available to as many qualified buyers as possible.
