Hanging Art at the Right Height

Staging Your Home Room by Room:

Have a large basket ready so that you can run around and do last minute tidying before a showing. Put loose items from around the house in the basket and tuck it away in the closet. You can come back to them later to put them away in the right place.

Don't cook any strong smelling food prior to a showing. (fish, curry, etc. ) Strong smells can be unappealing to a buyer Don't use air freshers or candles. Scents are very subjective. Instead place cotton balls with a drop of lemon essential oil in the vents around the house for a fresh, naturally clean scent.
