Show Day! – Pre-Showing Checklist

Couple Viewing Potential New Home With Female Realtor

It’s showtime! You’ve put in the hard work to prepare your home for potential buyers, and now it’s time for the big day. Here’s a handy checklist from Susan Brewer Service First Real Estate to ensure a smooth and successful showing:

Last-Minute Touches:

  • Light it Up: Open all curtains and blinds to maximize natural light. Turn on all light fixtures in your home, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere.
  • Fresh Scents: Neutralize any lingering odors with a light air freshener, avoiding overpowering fragrances. Opt for natural scents like vanilla or lavender.
  • Temperature Control: Set the thermostat to a comfortable temperature for potential buyers. Ideally, aim for a neutral setting that’s neither too hot nor too cold.

Making a Great First Impression:

  • Tidy Up: Do a quick sweep of all rooms, ensuring surfaces are clear and clutter-free. Put away any last-minute items that may have been left out.
  • Empty Trash Cans: Empty all trash cans throughout the house, including the bathroom and kitchen. No one wants to see overflowing bins!
  • Stage the Entryway: Create a welcoming entry point by straightening out the doormat and ensuring there are no shoes or personal belongings scattered around.

Preparing for Potential Buyers:

  • Secure Valuables: Lock away any valuables or important documents that may be left out. This includes jewelry, electronics, and medication.
  • Pet Precautions: If you haven’t already, make arrangements for your pets to be elsewhere during the showing. This minimizes distractions for potential buyers and allows them to focus on the home.
  • Leave the Showing to Us: Relax and let your Susan Brewer agent handle the showing. They will answer questions, provide information about the property, and guide potential buyers through your home.
