Pet Owners’ Guide to Selling Their Home

August 11, 2021 Posted by Andika Duncan Selling your home, Tips for Home Sellers

Some people may wonder how to sell their homes if they have pets. This article will focus on how pet owners should prepare for the process of selling their houses.

Here are my home selling tips for pet owners while keeping your pet in mind.

Remove any traces of your pet from the house before photos are taken so as not to scare away potential buyers who do not want pets in the house

Some people might think that taking photos with a cat or dog might be fun, but it can scare away potential buyers.

Get your carpets cleaned professionally to remove pet stains

Professional carpet cleaning is the most efficient way to get rid of pet stains. The benefits of professional cleaning include:

– Allergies may be reduced or eliminated by getting rid of pet dander and dust mite debris.

– Removing stains and odors will keep your carpets looking newer for longer.

– Professional cleaning will remove the pet urine that can break down your carpet fibers over time.

Ask a friend or relative to keep your pets while showing your home, or send them to doggy day care

One way to make your home feel more comfortable for a buyer is to have your pets stay from the home.

It is advised to either ask a friend or relative to keep your pets while showing your home, or send them to doggy day care. You will be able to show your buyers your own space from a personal perspective so they can see what it would be like if they lived there.

Clean up after your pet in the backyard, get a pooper scooper, or hire a company to do it for you.

Home selling tips for pet owners- clean up your yard

Some people clean up after their pets in the backyard themselves, a pooper scooper will speed up the process, and others hire a company to do it for them. The first option is the cheapest but saves time and is easy to store. The last option is more expensive but most convenient and does not require any physical labor from you.

Make sure you are familiar with your insurance policy.

Even if your pet is the loveliest thing in the world, having him or her around during a showing carries a variety of concerns. Examine the policy of your homeowner to ensure it covers you if the animals on your property attack a visitor. Aggression doesn’t necessarily have to be malicious: you may still be responsible if your pet smacks somebody out of enthusiasm. Such circumstances happen more often than you would imagine, thus it is best to prepare for them.
