Very few people will buy a house because they are attracted by fantastic bathrooms.

Buyers do react to bathrooms that are not cared for, however, because they view them as a reflection of the overall condition of the property.

Many buyers know that plumbing repairs potentially represent a major expense. They get nervous about dripping taps, loose tiles, and running toilets.

Your pre-marketing preparations should include making sure that your plumbing is working properly and that any cosmetic damage caused by former leaks has been repaired.

Get out the scouring powder, mildew remover, glass and tile cleaner and a scrubbing brush.

A new shower curtain, bath mat, and nice smelling soap can help give the buyer one more positive reason for liking your home!

Keep the bathroom spotless while your home is on the market.
