It is spring and a great time to do a deep spring cleaning; especially if you are planning on selling your house this season. Clean the windows both inside and outside, also clean the curtains, drapes and blinds. If possible leave all the drapes and blinds drawn during open houses and showings, let the natural light in. Deep clean floors, grout, tile and have the carpet professionally cleaned. This will go a long way in removing odors from the home. Clean off countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms. Potential buyers will notice the effort.
