Temperature - on cold days, a natural fire in the fireplace will help us sell your home.  Start the fire before the showing is scheduled.  On hot dags, consider turning the air conditioner four to five degrees cooler than normal.  The contrast will seem phenomenal, making a very positive impression.  In moderate weather, open windows for fresh air.

Too much furniture - many homes appear crowded, with to many pieces of large furniture and too much brick-a-brac.  Consider putting excess furniture in a storage locker.

Garage and basement - spruce up your work area.  Consider a garage sale to get rid of items you no longer need.  Put excess items in boxes and stock them neatly in a corner.  Consider using a commercial garage floor cleaner on oil and grease marks on the garage floor and driveway.  You might consider a commercial steam cleaner (not a carpet cleaner).

Lighting - if any room appears dark, increase the wattage of your light bulbs.  Before a showing,open the blinds and drapes and turn on the lights, even during the day.  You want the house as bright as possible.  Be sure that your light fixtures and windows are clean.

Closets - if closets appear crowded, remove items not needed and put in boxes.  They can stacked neatly in a corner of the basements, attic, or garage.

Drapes - if drapes needed cleaning, have it done.  If they are ole and worn, stained or dark, consider replacing them with either light-colored drapes or off-white vinyl vertical blinds.  You may want to check discount and home improvement centers usually carry standard sizes at reasonable prices or discount.

Carpet - dirty carpets should be either professionally steam-cleaned (preferred), or you should rent a heavy-duty cleaner. If the carpet is badly worn, replace it with new carpet (and a quality pad) in a neutral color.
