• Make sure the front gate work and not very rusty or dirty
• Take away/tidy all distracting stuff from the appearance
• Mow the lawn a few days before inspection
• Clean the pool and the surrounding area
• Put few plants to create a nice feeling
• Repair rusty roof gutters if it gets rusty or broken

Living Areas
• Keep living room open and bright to show the best advantage and emphasize the space appeal
• Store away the cluttered stuff, make living room neat and tidy
• Light the area with adequate light and replace not-working bulbs
• Clean the windows/doors
• Vacuum clean the dust of all areas
• Rearrange the furniture to make it look open

Kitchen and Bathrooms
• Show the value of your home by enhancing the kitchen and bathroom
• Give it a through clean
• Put away the cheap odd utensils
• Put few decorative utensils and a bowl of fresh fruits
• Leave bench top clean and clutter free
• Don’t cook before the inspection, smoking odour can add unpleasant impression
• Clean the bathroom, clean and scratch off the stains in bath tub, shower case, vanity, toilet, and tile walls
• Put away the old towels or cleaning cloth

Bedrooms/Study
• Make all beds, hang away all the clothes
• Cover the bed with a lovely newish cover and make it tidy
• Curtains should be open or neatly arranged
• Keep bedside lights on if the room is dark

Pets
• Take your pets with you, some buyers do not feel very comfortable with pets
• Put away the dishes of the pets and clean the stain on the floor
• Pets never stay inside

Overall
Create nice home ambience is very important.
Put few pot plants, flowers, play beautiful music, keep the lights on, keep the curtains open or neatly arranged, and open the doors for spacious feeling

The Golden Rule of presentation is 3 Cs
Clean
Clutter free
Colour – either few simple neutral colours or colours in harmony

The more attractive your property is, the more ready the buyers are going to buy, and the better result you will achieve. Your hard work before open home/inspection will never be done in vain. They add value to your property.
