The home tour is your shot to wow potential buyers. If you play it right, you can turn a “maybe” into an offer.
What to Show
- Clean, tidy spaces – Deep clean before every showing.
- Pleasant smells – Fresh air, light scents like vanilla or lavender.
- Natural light – Open blinds and curtains.
- Highlight the best features – Show off that deck, fireplace, or remodeled kitchen first.
- Basic info – Year built, recent upgrades, average maintenance costs.
What to Skip
- Clutter and personal items – Family photos, laundry piles, or personal collections.
- Pets roaming around – Not everyone’s a fan, and they can be distracting.
- Strong odors – Food, smoke, or overpowering air fresheners.
- Awkward talk – Don’t mention house problems or that you’re desperate to sell.
- Loud music – Distracting and not everyone likes your playlist.
💡Pro tip: The goal is to let buyers picture themselves living there — without feeling like they’re in your space.
