When you’re living in your home, it’s easy to overlook certain things because you see them every day. But when you’re getting ready to sell your home, it’s important to look at things through the eyes of potential buyers. And to make sure you’re addressing anything that might turn them off.

Here are some of the most common things that make buyers eliminate a home:

  • Odors from food, pets, and smoking
  • Bright, weird-colored walls
  • Messy bathrooms
  • The rooms are dimly illuminated
  • Outdated appliances
  • Dirty dishes or cluttered kitchen countertops
  • Old wallpaper
  • Bugs are evidence of rodents damping the basement
  • An unkept yard has untrimmed shrubs
  • Sellers that hang around during showings

Ready, willing, and able buyers are sometimes hard to find. So, the last thing you want to happen when a buyer finds your home is for them to be scared away. It’s something that should have been addressed beforehand.
