Clean your windows before listing your home

First impressions are important, and clean windows are critical to making a great first impression. Every window in your home should be cleaned inside and out so that buyers don’t notice dust, bugs and grime when they look outside – or peek inside. Cleaning takes a bit of time to do it right, but the benefits to home sellers is well worth the effort.

Professional window washer Tim Jarvis, owner of Jarvis Enterprises, says a soft squeegee, soft brush and steel wool, along with concentrated Dawn dish soap is the best way to clean windows.
