Remove Signs of a Pet.
You may be required by state law to disclose that pets have lived in your home, but you don't need to advertise that pets live at your house.
Removing signs that you have a pet is simply smart practice.
Why turn off a buyer at the get-go?
It's those first impressions that are so all-fired important.
- Do not put photos online showing your cat asleep on the bed
- Seal up doggie doors
- Put away food and water bowls when not in use
- Vacuum religiously, every day, sometimes twice a day
- Pick up pet toys and put them away
- Pack up cat trees and other signs of cat paraphernalia (you know who you are)
- Remove photos of pets from refrigerator, walls and table tops
- Pack up all cages, carriers and other tell-tale signs
