Selling your Home ~ Your Kitchen ~ by Cidalia Matukas ~ www.HomesbyCidal...

The most common critique I hear from buyers are about the kitchen. Like bathrooms the are usually not updated. So, what should you do if it is not in the budget to remodel? Keep in neutral and clean. You will want to make sure that your counters are de-clutter and always clean. I understand that you will still need to cook and eat but you want to make sure that when you do have a prospective buyer coming to see the home that you have no dishes in the sink or on the counter. Leave the dishes in the dishwasher if need be. You can even have the dishwasher running . Also, you want to remove and tuck away your appliances. You can leave one nice and clean appliances but do not leave out your toaster, blender, coffee maker etc. You might ant to consider buying a nice wicker basket and having some colorful place mats rolled up and in them.

The most important tip I can give. Please do not cook anything prior to a showing. Although you may think your meal smells wonderful others may be offended by it. You may want to consider a no cooking rule at least 1 hour before a showing and perhaps burn a nice clean and simple fragrance candle.
