HOME SELLING TIPS – 2


When your home is to be shown, we will always attempt to make an appointment with you, giving you as much advance notice as possible.

To help make the best impression during showings, we suggest you:

·      Open draperies and curtains to let in natural light
·      Turn on enough lights to brighten every corner.
·      Remove dirty dishes
·      Make beds.
·      Dust and vacuum; clear clutter.  
·      Clean kitchens and baths so they sparkle; clear all clutter.
·      Turn off TV’s and radios to cut down distractions.
·      Remove pets from the house
·      Put away or remove valuables such as jewelry and cash

Stay Safe!

The most important element of the home sale is your safety. Avoid talking with prospective buyers during showings. Let the agent showing your home answer any questions the prospective buyers may have. It is best for you to leave while the house is being shown so buyers can visualize or imagine themselves living there. Complete the Seller's Disclosure Statement accurately and fully, and update it as needed to correctly reflect the condition of your home.


If a prospective buyer comes by unexpectedly without a broker, get their name and phone number. FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION, DO NOT SHOW THE HOME. Have unescorted buyers call your agent for an appointment.

He noted that the completion of the project had enabled lighting-up programme that spans parts of the state from Marina to Western Avenue through Agege Motor Road to Oshodi.
