Keep It Neat One of the last things to do before opening your doors to potential buyers, is to clean your home, put everything away, prepare for visitors, and keep it that way until your home sells. With your home "prepared for visitors", we can now put it on the market and start showing to potential buyers. It is important to quickly develop the habit of keeping your home neat with the beds made, the laundry, toys, and dishes put away so you are always prepared to have your home shown. There will, of course, be lapses, it can't be helped, but we will work around it.

The Types of Situations It is usually a good idea for the seller to be absent from the home during all showing as situations sometimes arise when the seller can impede a potential sale.

Scheduling a Showing The policy of Innovative Moves is to notify our sellers a day or two in advance of upcoming "home showings", but it's not always possible because quite often we'll get a call from a drive-by who wants to see it right away. We do our best to manage our listings as smoothly as possible, but the nature of the business is to accomodate potential buyers when they are in town, otherwise they'll go elsewhere. As soon as we are called to schedule a showing, we notify the seller of the time and ask if it's OK. If the owner is out, we'll leave a message on their answering machine of the time, and to please advise us if it is not possible.
