After your home is staged and on the market, most hard work is complete. However, there is still work to be done because most people do not live in their home regularly the way they must live in their home when it is on the market. Steps that I will strongly encourage you to follow are:
At the beginning of the day, and before you leave, make sure your dishes are done and counters clear and clean, dirty clothes picked up, beds made, toilet lids down, garbage out and so on.
When you leave, leave most lights on please! Buyers want to know that your house is light and bright and if their agent is fumbling for the lights, they will not have that important “first” impression! In addition, you will want your freshly staged and cleaned home to be shining like the trophy it is!
Leave the blinds/curtains open.
