The most important room in your Weston Home
The kitchen is the most important room in your home for several reasons, the biggest of which is the immutable fact that women buy homes and guys simply pay for them(mostly). In most households the lady of the home will be spending a lot of time there and it better be spotless, with no clutter and well lit.
Weston Home Kitchen
First, get everything off the kitchen counters. Everything. Even the toaster. Put the toaster in a cabinet or under the sink and take it out when you use it. Find a place where you can store everything in cabinets and drawers and we mean everything. If you are like most of us you don’t have much room in your drawers or cabinets. Clean them out. The dishes, pots and pans that rarely get used? Put them in a box and put that box in storage not in the garage.
You see, homebuyers will open all your cabinets and drawers, especially in the kitchen. They want to be sure there is enough room for their “stuff. If your pantries, and drawers are jammed full, it sends a negative message to the buyer and does not promote an image of abundant storage space. The best way to do that is to have as much “empty space” as possible.
For that reason, if you have a “junk drawer,” get rid of the junk. If you have a rarely used crock pot, put it in storage. Do this with every cabinet and drawer. Create open space and lots of it.
If your pantry looks jammed full with large amount of foodstuffs crammed into the shelves or pantry, begin using them – especially your canned goods. Canned goods are heavy and you don’t want to be lugging them to a new house, anyway – or paying a mover to do so. Let what you have on the shelves determine your menus and use up as much as you can as quickly as you can, if you have a showing and your full, put them in a box and put it in your trunk until after your showing.
Beneath the sink is critical, too. Make sure the area beneath the sink is as empty as possible, even removing extra cleaning supplies. You should scrub the area down as well, and if there are any tell-tale signs of water leaks that may cause a homebuyer to hesitate in buying your home, and if there are leaks get them fixed and make sure the former leaks leave no tell tale traces.
