Tips for Listing Your Home - Charlotte, NC Real Estate

Listing your home in Charlotte, NC

If you are currently thinking of listing your home or have it listed, I have some great tips when it comes to good smells and bad smells. Have you ever walked into a home and it smelled like freshly baked cookies or a fresh scent--this automatically gives you a good feeling. On the other hand, have you ever walked into a home and all you could do was smell smoke, old trash or anything that wasn't pleasant? Here are some ideas to avoid bad smells:

1. Take out the trash
2. Do not let your clients smoke in the house
3. Do not cook strong smelling foods, such as fish, eggs, garlic, broccoli
4. Make sure the pets are limited to one room and wash their bedding often.

Some tips of scents that are appealing are:

1. Scented candles--nothing heavy citrus or lemon is best
2. open windows and let fresh air in
3. Cinnamon sticks are great
4. If you have pets, use odor eliminators like PureAyre
5. Freshly baked cookies or bread have a great homey smell

Those are just some basic tips and if you'd like to hear more, please give me a call at (704) 650-3537 and I'd be happy to share my ideas along with my home staging advice. Thanks and have a great day.
