Remove any building materials or items that are not specifically decorative and contributing to the sale. This includes scrap wood, discarded household items, items covered by  tarps, toys, yard and garden tools, broken pots and discarded plants etc.  Store garbage cans in the garage or around the back of the house and out of site.

Closely check the home from the roof line down.

Inspect the condition of the paint or siding?

Do you need flower beds or potted flowers?

Keep the property neatly groomed.
