Revitalize Your Space: Here are 5 Simple Ways To Freshen Your Home
1. DONE AND DUSTED
The best way to freshen up your living area is to get rid of the dirt, right down to the dust particles
2. ODOR, ODOR, ODOR
The day before a showing, avoid cooking any foods with strong odors such as onions, garlic and bacon
3. GET TO BAKING
There's a reason Realtors continue to use the ole trick of popping in a batch of cookies to bake before a showing... it works.
4. GET POTTED

5. WINDOWS
Spotless windows let sunlight stream into space and help to show it off
