So you have your house for sale in the Pekin Illinois Real Estate market and you just received a call requesting a showing of your home… in the next ten minutes ! Here is a quick list if you have to scramble.

• Sound - Turn off the television. Soft classical musical is okay, but some people find it distracting.
• Sight - Turn on overly light in the house - day and night. Every window covering should be open (unless the view is unattractive).
• Smell - Heat a pan on the stove and drop in a few drops of vanilla
• Kitchen - Make sure dirty dishes are out of sight
• Bathrooms - Close toilet lids.
• Living/Family rooms - Hide clutter, magazines, newspapers, etc.
• Bedrooms - Make the beds, don't use the closet as a hiding place - try underneath the bed.
• Exterior - Keep the walkway clear, put away trashcans and toys.
• Children & Pets Outside - You too! Let the Realtor sell your home. If you are there the buyer may feel uncomfortable voicing objections and their Agent won't be able to respond to these objections.
