While Your Property Is Being Shown

Give Some Thoughts To Your Pets

• Many people do not like pets inside.
• BE AWARE OF PET ODORS.
• Have your carpets professionally cleaned if necessary.
• Put your pets out of sight and sound for showings.
• Put away food, water bowls, and litter box.

A Note To Smokers

• Some people are sensitive to the odor of tobacco smoke.
• Have your carpets and draperies professionally cleaned if needed.
• Leave open containers of potpourri in your home and burn scented candles.
• Spray the house with an air freshener before showings.
• Do not smoke inside when you expect a showing.

Turn On Your Lights – Day Or Night

• Your property can never appear too bright.
• Light creates a cheerful, welcome feeling.
• Install a skylight in a very dark room.

Never Stay In The Property When It Is Being Shown

• Buyers are not comfortable when the owner is present.
• They will view the property too quickly and miss the best features.
• A family member’s presence rarely helps the sale.
• Do not put this obstacle in your path.

Leave The Property Graphics In A Visable Place

• Buyers and Realtors use these to remember your property.
• Graphics list your property’s best features.
• Leave them near the front door or on the dining room table.
