Show-Perfect ConditionClean upgraded kitchen

Unmade beds, dishes in the sink, toilet seats up, hair in the shower, visible trash in wastebaskets, kitty litter boxes and stored junk on balconies are complete turn-offs for Buyers. It makes them feel squeamish and soiled.

It’s the hardest thing to do as a Seller, but don’t leave your house without putting it in show-perfect condition. The ideal Buyer may arrive an hour after you walk out the door.
