When it’s time to sell, it’s time to clean. Treat this situation as if you were going on your first date and you were trying to make it love at first sight. If you don’t you’re at a disadvantage already (especially if there’s competition from other houses). If your house is a dump, people will value it less. Many times I am in properties and people want you to look past the mess and look at the room sizes, the layout and anything else but the mess. Honestly, it’s not possible. Most people won’t say anything; but they’re thinking it.
Here’s another issue; if the prospects are interested, they will offer less because they figure that they have a lot of work to do. The nicer the house, the more money they’re willing to pay and vice-versa. You also need to understand that just because you, your family and friends are used to the way you keep your house doesn’t mean a ready, willing and able buyer will be okay with it. Remember first impressions have an impact on you, your prospective buyer and your wallet.
