When selling a house there are many steps you have to take in order to put the house in tip-top shape. When you have lived in a home for a long time, it can be hard to think of everything a buyer will see and look for when they walk into a home. Take the cleanliness factor out of the equation before an Open House or Showing. Hire a professional house cleaning service to make your home appealing and let the potential buyer imagine themselves in the home.
Before You Put Your House on the Market
Inspections are important in the selling process. Use every opportunity to enhance the appeal of your Central Indiana home. An item that you think may need replacing before the inspection could just need a heavy-duty cleaning.
Before a House Showing/Open House
Using a cleaning service regularly while your home is on the Indianapolis, Zionsville, Carmel, Fishers, or Westfield market will pay off. But if you are on a tight budget use a cleaning service just for your Open Houses.
Moving Out Cleaning Service
Most cleaning companies offer a “move-out” cleaning service. Once a home is empty many hidden areas suddenly are glaringly obvious. Consider the time it would take to clean these areas and the rest of your home versus letting a service remove this pressure. You will have many other demands on your time and energy moving a family to a new home.
If you decide to take the time and effort to clean your house yourself, here are a few tips:
- Declutter your house and make it as spotless as possible.
- Woodwork should be hand-washed to remove all fingerprints, spots and smudges.
- Clean the inside of windows, not just the outside.
- Try to eliminate odors; many people are very sensitive to smells. Consider a chemical or electronic odor eliminator.
- Scrub down showers and tubs.
- Wash floors and baseboards.
- Clean appliances inside and out.
You really cannot overdo cleanliness when trying for top dollar for your home sale.
