3 Buyer Pet Peeves When Touring Homes

What makes home buyers grimace when they tour a home for-sale? Don't let your home fall prey to one of these common buyer pet peeves.

Pets: Dirty kitty litter boxes or dog toys scattered in a room can turn off buyers who associate pets with unsanitary homes. Remove all traces of pets in a home and pay attention to the home's smell; get rid of any lingering pet odors when homes are for sale.

Kid items: Don't let the kids overtake a home with toys cluttering every square inch. Also, pay attention to any sanitary or personal items involving infants.

Personal items: Watch the cleanliness of the bathroom and what's left out: For example, make sure toothpaste residue isn't left in the sink or prescription medications are left out in the open. Buyers want to feel clean in the bathroom... they don't need to be reminded that they will be taking over a 'used' bathroom.
