Mounted flat screen televisions sometimes have cords hanging behind them. When the television is flushed and you cannot see the cords, your home will show much better. 2. Unkempt yards. Always have your yard properly maintained. 3. A dingy front door. Since it is the first thing that potential buyers see when they walk up, make sure that your front door is clean and freshly painted. 4. Pets. You may want to send your animals to stay with someone, or at least crate them, while you are showing your home. Either way, you must keep them away and address potential odors they may have left in your home. 5. Cobwebs. Knock out all the old cobwebs and clean any filters. This shows that you are properly maintaining your home. Since it is the first thing that potential buyers see when they walk up, make sure that your door is clean and freshly painted. 6.
