It’s a buyer’s market and selling homes for their greatest sale price is hard in these days of foreclosures and short sale you’ve heard that home staging is the way to go, but you don’t want to rip out perfectly good fittings in order to make your home shine. Is there a way you can improve your home’s manifestation without putting a huge strain on the setting? The answer is yes! Cleaning is the number 1 home stager’s weapon. Not anything can take the place of soap and water when it comes to support your home. Clean homes smell better – even if you or the buyer doesn’t notice it – and look better. Invest in some orange oil cleansers for a unmarked citrus scent and scrub, scrub, scrub! Instead of replacing bathroom fixtures, clean along with polish them. Have your home power washed if it is sheltered with vinyl siding. You may want to repaint your home’s exterior and interior to give it a fresh, new look. There are low- and no-VOC (volatile organic compounds – bad environmental juju) paints obtainable and recycled paint made from bucket leftovers. By carefully cleaning your brushes and rollers, you can make them last longer and be usable for more paint jobs in the future. Trays can also be cleaned and reused. Reusable drop cloths can be used for years instead of provisional plastic ones. Instead of buying new furniture, reupholster, recover or repair the old.
