Get Rid of Pet Odor - PLEASE!!!
When I bring a Buyer to your home the last thing we want is to smell your pet(s) as soon as we open the front door. I know you love them, and they surely don’t smell bad to you, but what a turn off it is to the potential Buyer. A particularly smelly dog crated in the laundry room next to the kitchen can be a huge turn off. Thank you for not letting your dog roam the house, but please give Fido a bath. Likewise, the smell of your kitty’s litter box is never pleasant. One of my favorite’s is the cat that won’t use the litter box and relieves himself anywhere but. I am currently looking to buy another house for myself and I have a son with a severe cat allergy. We went into a home this week that had cats and within 10 minutes he was sneezing. I mentioned this to the listing agent and she informed me that the Sellers had cleaned the carpets the week before and that she could not smell it, and, the cats had been gone for 2 weeks. The odor smacked me in the face as soon as I opened the door! We marked this one off our list.
Don’t let this happen to you. Be vigilant and keep your home odor free. Happy Selling!
