Comfortable Temperature
Make sure to control the temperature in your home during home showings, so that potential buyers are comfortable. In the summer, make sure the air conditioning is on and in the winter, make sure the heat is on.
Make Your Home Smell Good
The way your home smells can make a big impression on potential buyers. Consider using scented candles or air fresheners to create a pleasant and inviting scent in your home.
