1.   Put fresh or silk flowers in principal rooms for a touch of color.

2.   Add a new toilet paper rolls, new shower curtain, fresh towels, and new  soaps to every bath.
 
3.   Turn on every light and open all shades and curtains to let the light in

4.   Set out a dish of fresh baked goods for a homey smell. (Chocolate chip cookies are great) or put a few dishes of potpourri around.

5.   Put a few lit candles in romantic spots such as around the tub or in the bedroom. 

6.   Set your dinner table with pretty dishes and candles as if for a party.

7.   Buy a fresh doormat with a clever saying.

8.   Take one or two major pieces of furniture out of every room to create a sense of spaciousness.

9.   Clean up every  top space.  Dresser tops, table tops, counter tops should be free of nick, knack and  personal items.  Put away kitchen appliances and personal bathroom items to give the illusion of more counter space.

10.  Turn on stereo to play music softly 

11.  Turn on the gas logs, or lay a fire in the fireplace. Or put a basket of flowers there if it's not in use.

12.  Depersonalize the rooms by putting away family photos, mementos, and distinctive artwork.
13.  Turn on the sprinklers for 20 - 25 minutes to make the lawn sparkle.

By doing this extra little bit of work will help to make a well advertised open house a success.  I hope this helps sell your Oakland county home, or Wayne County home, or Livingston county, or Michigan home.
