4 Tips to Stay Safe While Your Home is Listed For Sale
Before pictures and videos are taken of your home, remember to do the following…
- Remove all personal pictures, especially those of children
- Remove all visible jewelry
- Remove any expensive items
On days of showings, remember to either remove from the property or lock away the following items…
- Guns and other weapons
- Jewelry
- Medication
- Any items of value to you
- Anything that could be broken
Once your home is for sale, people will be driving by. Some people may walk up to your home and request a showing or ask you questions if you are outside. Do not allow strangers into your home. Ask anyone requesting a showing to schedule a showing through me or their buyers’ agent.
If you have children, please put up their toys on days of showings. Children of people looking at your home may see the toys and want to play with them. I would not want your child’s favorite toy to be broken by potential buyers.
Keep these tips in mind to stay safe while your home is listed for sale.
