Part of this is making sure that there\u2019s nothing about your home that will turn off potential buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following are ten of the top turn-offs for home buyers you should avoid when putting your home up for sale:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Unpleasant odors<\/strong> \u2013 A house filled with unpleasant odors will turn the buyer off immediately. This can be anything from the smell of cigarette smoke to the smell of your pets. If there are unpleasant smells present in your home, you need to get rid of them before you begin showing your home. Open up the windows to get some air-flow and have a professional cleaner come to your house to help get rid of the smell. An unpleasant smell will rush the buyer. His or her mind will be fixed on leaving as soon as possible instead of looking at the rest of your home.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A converted garage<\/strong> \u2013 If you\u2019ve converted your garage to a home office, an extra bedroom, a personal gym, or anything else, then convert it back to a garage. Do this before you begin showing your house. There\u2019s a good chance most buyers will want the garage to be a garage. Especially if street parking is at a premium.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pools<\/strong> \u2013 Don\u2019t be mistaken into thinking that your outdoor pool is a feature that will attract all buyers. Most buyers will consider a pool to be a major eyesore. This is especially true for above-ground pools which tend to leave dead spots in the grass. Even an in-ground pool is a huge turn-off due to the high maintenance required to care for a pool. Not to mention the liability involved with owning a pool. Having a pool can even increase the homeowner\u2019s insurance premiums that the next homeowner will have to pay.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Outrageous color design<\/strong> \u2013 You may have a unique taste in interior design which you may have celebrated by choosing some bold colors or patterns for your home. Though, this doesn\u2019t mean that everyone else will share your tastes. Re-paint those lime green walls using a neutral color scheme instead.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wallpaper<\/strong> \u2013 Wallpaper almost always looks tacky. Especially if it\u2019s been up there for the better part of the decade or if you have specially designed \u201cfun\u201d wallpaper in your child\u2019s bedroom. Not only is wallpaper extremely personalized, it\u2019s also quite hard to remove. This adds to the \u201cthings to do\u201d list that a homebuyer will have if he or she decides to purchase your home.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Personal d\u00e9cor<\/strong> \u2013<span style=\"color: initial;\">You may think that the family portraits in the living room or the kids\u2019 drawings tacked up on the fridge help to add a homely and inviting feeling to the atmosphere of your house. Though, all they\u2019re doing is making buyers feel like they are walking in someone else\u2019s home. You need to decorate the home so that buyers can pretend like it is theirs. This will give them a better sense of what it would be like to live there. Having pictures of someone else\u2019s kids all over the place won\u2019t help to achieve this.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Meddlesome sellers<\/strong> \u2013 There\u2019s nothing more annoying than having a seller lurking around during a showing. &nbsp;Many sellers that do this will try to walk around the house with potential buyers in order to provide their thoughts and feelings about the house. Most buyers want to be able to privately tour the home without the added pressure from the seller. Having the seller around makes it difficult for potential buyers to talk privately. Let the realtor do his or her job and stay away from your home showings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dirty homes<\/strong> \u2013 Nobody wants to walk into a home that has clutter everywhere, or even worse, that\u2019s dirty. Make your home presentable by getting rid of clutter and doing a whole-house cleaning. Place special emphasis on the bathrooms and the kitchen. Hire a cleaning service if you have to.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Misrepresented homes<\/strong> \u2013 Nothing angers buyers more than showing up to a home that was misrepresented in ads.&nbsp; Whether because the house is located in the middle of a trailer park, or because that third bedroom is a glorified closet space. You\u2019re not doing yourself any favors by tricking buyers to try and get them to come to your showings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><mark style=\"background-color:#ffffff\" class=\"has-inline-color has-default-text-color\"><strong>Pets<\/strong> &#8211; If you\u2019re planning a showing, remove your pets from your home. Buyers don\u2019t want to have to deal with dogs or cats chasing them around. Too, some buyers could potentially be afraid of animals or have allergies.<\/mark><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If deciding to sell your home, there are a number of things that you need to do before listing it to potential home buyers.
