Tighten the doorknobs. As with the exterior, painting indoors will pay dividends out of all proportion to the time and effort spent. Floors Repair or replace missing or damaged pieces of tile. Carpet Steam clean soiled carpets. If you have a pet, clean the carpet some time before your home is placed on the market to be sure any odors have been eliminated.
Lights Make sure there are no missing light bulbs.
Don't overlook those outside and in the garage. Also remember the utility room, halls, closets, over the kitchen sink, and in the oven and exhaust hood. Switches and fixtures Repair or replace wall switches, outlets, and light fixtures that don't work. Replace any broken switch plates. Appliances Those that will be sold with the home should be in good working condition.
