The smell of cookies helps a lot.

In lots of stores, you can buy these apple-cinnamon things...that put a lovely homey fragrance in your house.

Make sure your walls are neutral....

If you begin to pack things, definitely put them in the garage, in an orderly pile...it shows people you are serious about selling.

If you have any warranties or you've upgraded anything, have the paperwork for your realtor, so he/she can list that.

Landscaping is important, so mow your lawn and have pics taken before all the leaves fall off, so potential buyers can see what the property looked like when it was in bloom.

Most definitely clean your rugs....

Some suggest getting your house power washed; but that depends on what materials were used to build your house...

The condition of your roof is important.

Think of everything you've done in the past two years to improve the quality of the house....

If you have sky lights, make sure they are clean.

Definitely get your windows washed, inside and out.

And, good luck to you.
