ROANOKE, VA — Homes that are
thoroughly cleaned sell quicker and for more, according
to The Roanoke Times.
The article reviews the basics of "home staging"
— which presents for-sale homes in their best
light.
According to a survey noted in the story, cleaning
and decluttering is the most important home staging
project, having an impact on the sales price in excess
of $2,000.
Recommended cleaning projects include having
carpet professionally cleaned and making
sure the kitchen and bathroom are spotless, the story
stated.
A Realtor and accredited home stager told the Times:
"The market is just flooded with inventory.
We're looking for every competitive edge that we can
find."
