Clean

Take a sniff. Are there any unpleasant odours in your home? If so, track them down and eliminate them. Ensure all your lights work and are free of cobwebs. You want your home to look spacious, bright and fresh.

In the kitchen, clean all appliances, including your oven. Clean or replace your greasy stove hood filter. Clean your cabinets inside and out, as well as your countertops and backsplashes. In bathrooms, scrub sinks, tubs and toilets taking care to remove any rust stains. Remove mildew from showers and bathtubs. Clean mirrors, light switch plates and cupboard handles.

If you have ceramic tile in either your kitchen or bathroom, ensure grouting is intact and clean.

You want your buyer to see a neat, clean, well-lit interior. Ensure that carpets are clean and floors are scrubbed and polished.  If you have a pet with a litterbox, ensure the litterbox is always clean.

Use cleaning solutions to remove oil stains from the floor in the garage or on the driveway. Use a power washer to clean any walkways or deck.
