Showing Your Home
Can You See The Light?
Illumination in your home can be the "welcome sign" for every prospect.
Turn on all the exterior and interior lights, including accent and picture lights.
Avoid Crowds
Potential buyers will feel likw intruders and want to hurry through your home
if there are too many people around. Send the kids over to the neighbors - take
a walk while your house is being shown.
Silence Is Golden
When showing your house, turn down or off, radios or television sets. Let your
realtor and the buyers talk freely without having to yell over any noise.
Put "Fido" Outside
Dog is a man's best friend, but not when showing your house. Keep pets out of
the way; not underfoot.
This Is Not A Social Call
Be courteous and friendly, but don't force conversation with potential buyers.
They're there to inspect your house, not to be social. Let your realtor do the
talking.
Neither Is It A Garage Sale
Don't try to sell the potential buyers any of the furniture or furnishings that
you don't want to take with you. They haven't bought your house yet - you could
ruin the sale.
