Clean Homes Sell Fast

Whether you are a homeowner or Realtor, once a home is put on the market all parties involved want to ensure the home moves as quickly as possible. Nothing is worse than the waiting game when it comes to selling a home. Luckily, there are some things you can do to ensure buyers see the full potential of the home.  Sell your home faster with these quick tips.

The National Association of Realtors suggests staging a home for maximum effect. Potential buyers will have a hard time overlooking stained carpets, dated wallpaper or weak first impressions. Therefore, you will want to ensure the home is as neutral as possible without a lot of distraction. A room with a lot of loud decor or ratty carpet requires a potential buyer to imagine the room clean and in order. You want all rooms to look move in ready without leaving anything to the imagination.

Here are some easy and cheap tips presented by the National Association of Realtors for effectively staging a home:

• Keep counter tops cleared

• Replace all burned out lightbulbs

• Open all drapes and window blinds

• Put pets in cages or take them to a neighbor

• No dirty dishes in the sink

• No laundry in the washer/dryer

• Clean or replace dirty or worn carpets

• Put on soft music

• Burn wood in the fireplace on cold days, otherwise, the fireplace should be clean
