There is nothing as basic and primal as our sense of smell. Scientist say that our sense of smell bypasses our consciences awareness and goes straight to our basal cortex in our brain.
You have seen it, house looked great on the Internet. You pull up and the yard is nice trim and manicured and looks inviting. You and your buying prospect are excited as you enter the home you came to view.
As you walk into the home you are immediately hit with an odor like hitting a wall. Odors and their severity vary from home to home. It can be a smoker's home, an exotic chef, dog and cat's residence, sulfur smell, mold, dirty filters and many other common or other rare vapors can be present.
A seller needs to consider how a smell will effect a a potential buyer's opinion of their home. To help ensure success and a quicker offer it is best to eliminate all unpleasant odors. Clean filters, clean or replace carpet, eliminate all molds, scrub grouts, keep all pet items extra clean and orderly. Use fresh paint, pine-sol, carpet fresh, air filters, deodorants sprays, and plug ins.
I have found the best smell for a listed home or an open house is vanilla or the fresh smell of cookies.
Keeping your home smelling great will lead your seller to the green smell of money quicker.
