Healthy you, healthy house

Want to be healthier and sell your home? Clean your house! A clean home is healthier for you and will help sell it faster. I have shown homes that have not been tidied up before the showing and it is so hard for buyers to see beyond the dirt and envision the beauty. You don't need a lot of expensive cleaners either, elbow grease and just a few products will do the trick. Some of my favorites are:
1) Vinegar - this is great at cleaning grout, soap scum and water deposits (not to mention cheap)
2) Old t-shirts and a multi purpose spray such as Green Works or Murphy's Oil Soap spray
3) Plastic gloves - I just plain work harder when my hands are protected!
4) Easiest ever window cleaning method - bucket with warm water, a drop of dish soap, a squeegee, (the kind for cars - sponge on one side, rubber squeegee on the other side), and a dry towel. Sponge the window down, squeegee the water off and wipe around the edges with the towel. No streaks! You can even do it in the sun! No more dirty black newspaper hands.
There you have it, simple easy steps for cleaning your home up for that sale.
