Planning To Sell Your Honolulu Home Part Five-Cleaning
June 17th, 2009 categories: For Sellers
There is no substitute for a clean home and this is why number five of my ongoing series has to do with having the home cleaned.
5. Hire a professional cleaner. I know that most people are more than capable of cleaning their home. Many of you probably take great pride in the fact that you clean your house every week or two. When it comes to selling a Honolulu home or condominium, I have found that most professional cleaners will provide a level of cleaning that will help your home sell for more money. Because a cleaner will see things that you cannot, they will address issues that may have been seen by a buyer, thus eliminating negative details that might turn off a potential buyer.
Once you have removed the clutter from the house (point #4), it is a good idea to call two or three referred cleaning companies to arrange for them to do an interior inspection and provide a cleaning bid. Bids are important because I have found that prices can vary widely and as long as a cleaning company is referred and reputable, it is okay to go with the best price. Cleaning should be done shortly before the first showing and you may want to contract for regular cleaning updates during the marketing period. This way the home will look its best while you are looking for the buyer that will pay the highest price.
If you need a referral to cleaners that we have worked with in the past, feel free to call me at 808-737-2093 or toll free at 877-737-2093.
