Detailing That Will Help You Sell Your Home This Spring

To sell your home this spring, you should repaint, declutter and deep clean, but details will make the most difference.
- Before you paint, scuff up the surface with a light sanding or a fine abrasive pad. Clean walls and floors of dust and dirt so painter’s tape will adhere tightly and your paint job looks more professional.
- Be ruthless when you declutter. Donate items you don’t use or like very much. Closets look bigger with fewer clothes. Organize kitchen and bath cabinets and drawers for more appeal.
- Deep cleaning should include windows. Vacuum dust and dirt from sills, then apply a generous spray of window cleaner. Use a squeegee to remove wet streaks, which works better than a cloth. Fluff curtains in the dryer and wipe off curtain rods in the meanwhile. Open all window coverings for showings to homebuyers.
- Pay attention to smells. Wash all bedding, and apply baking soda to the mattresses, then vacuum. Wash or replace pet beds. Put orange peels down stinky disposals to help clean smelly blades.
