LIVING IN A FISHBOWL — The Realities of Keeping Your Home Show-Ready —
A house on the market requires keeping the home in a constant “show-ready” condition, and changes in day-to-day life are inherent in the process. Sellers often receive unexpected phone calls at all hours from unrepresented prospects and buyers’ agents requesting showings, along with frequent updates from the listing agent by phone, email, text, and showing-appointment notifications. They also will likely deal with repair and reconditioning appointments and inspections. There are repeated showings when the home first hits the market. Keep your home in pristine showing condition for impromptu visitors — the perfect prospect might just drop in at dinnertime.
