Pet hair and dander turn off buyers who don't own pets. Deep clean before showings, especially removing cat dander and dog hair, to avoid losing a sale over something simple to fix.

It's really important, and we've learned this over the years, and I'm an animal lover, but I can tell you from experience, if people have cats or dogs that shed a lot, at a very minimum, clean your home to get rid of all that evidence before someone— because a lot of people don't like animals. A lot of people have never had a cat or a dog, and you don't want to turn them off from buying a home just because you have cat dander or dog hair on the floor. And we've seen it happen before, and we just shake our heads because, you know, it's not a big deal. You clean it, take care of it.
