You know that you need to make your home look its best before hosting a showing or an open house. But making your home smell good is nearly as important as the staging and repairs. Your home should appeal to all of your potential buyers’ senses, so spend some time making your home smell great before your showings or open houses. Freshen up your home by giving it a good scrub down and give those things that can hold onto smells (like trash cans and carpets). Then, do a bit of baking before showings to make your home smell delicious! . . . #iloverealestate #grandjunction  Summer is coming fast, and with those nice sunny days come a downside: you now have to cool your home.
