When the agent arrives with
the prospects, have the drapes and window shades open to let in as
much daylight as possible. If it happens to be night, be sure that
all of your outdoor lights are on, especially landscape and pool lights
if you have them. |

Open all the doors between rooms to give
an inviting feeling. Turn on all of the lights including the lamps.
Tune the radio to some quiet, "elevator-style" music. |

Pick up any newspapers or magazines that
may be lying around. See that the counters are free of unnecessary
items and that any dirty dishes are put in the dishwasher. Take out
the trash if needed. |

If you have pets, get them out of the way.
Not everyone may share your love for animals. Some people may even
be allergic to them. |

The beds should be made and clothes picked

When you leave the house in the morning
or during the day, please leave it as if you know it is going to be
shown. It's difficult sometimes and might even mean you have to get
up a little earlier in order to take care of these important items.
You never know when the right person is going to look at it, so you
must always be ready for them. |
