I cannot overemphasize the importance of having your Carillon Lakes homes for sale thoroughly cleaned inside and out prior to listing. A thoroughly cleaned home will invite more buyers. Let them realize how much you took care of your beloved home by checking every nook and corner and making sure everything is clean and properly working. To avoid getting overwhelmed, tackle the tasks one at a time using the list below.
Here is how you can go over cleaning the first 3 important parts of your home – the entrance, the kitchen, and the bedroom.
Entrance
The entrance of your Carillon Lakes community homes is where buyers start building their first impression. Make sure they won’t be greeted by dust and dirty floors.

– Check knobs and replace if defective
– Clean doors and entryways, repaint if needed
– Make sure lights are working and are dust-free
Kitchen

– Start with opening windows and cleaning blinds
– Move to walls and countertops
– Separately wipe and disinfect each appliances (oven, microwave, refrigerator, and others)
– Take out items in drawers so you can clean both items and drawers, replace when done

Bedrooms
