Home Buying

Sweet Smells!

While you may have your home looking good, does it smell as good as it looks?  Odors can be a major deterrent to a potential buyer looking at your home.  Garbage disposals are often a source of sour smells.  Try grinding up a lemon and running it through your disposal to neutralize any odors. Want to sweeten things up a bit?  Bake some cookies or bread before a showing.  If you don’t have time to bake, sprinkle cinnamon powder or vanilla extract on a cookie sheet and warm it up in the oven.  If you have pets in your home, you might consider having your carpets & furniture professionally cleaned.  Smokers should also consider a fresh coat of paint in addition to professional cleaning to help eliminate any odors.
