Keller Williams agents know how hard it can be to keep your home clean and show-worthy when you’ve got a house full of kids or work out of the home or are just too busy living life to worry about how spic and span your house is. We’ve come up with a few time crunch cleaning tips, that can help you out whether you’ve got a spur of the moment house showing, a friend dropping by, or only five minutes to spare.
Keller Williams Time Crunch Tips:
- Focus on the essentials: Take out the kitchen trash (two minutes) . Throw the clutter into a cabinet (five minutes). Make the beds (five minutes). This should take less than fifteen minutes.
- Febreeze or an odor eliminator is an essential tool to have on hand. A few sprays in each room takes less than two minutes, and makes your house seem like it’s been recently cleaned.
- If you can plan ahead, have small batches of cookie batter in your freezer or refrigerator. Heat your oven while you take out the trash. Drop about six cookies onto the cookie sheet and bake in the oven while you clean the rest of the house. Within ten minutes, you have a clean house scented with the homey-fragrance of freshly-baked cookies, and a treat for your guests or potential buyers.
