If your house is cluttered and not clean it will be harder to sell. Clean Think clean, cleaner than clean.
Dirty houses sell for less and take longer to market.
Many buyers will walk out of a dirty house without giving it a second thought. Professional steam cleaning the carpets and draperies is usually well worth the expense. The kitchen and master bath are extremely important. Polish the faucets, wipe down the sinks, bleach the stained grout. A nasty kitchen or bathroom is a deal killer.
