How To Present Your Bathroom While Selling Your Home?

We all sell property at one point of time or the other. With the rising demand for luxury flats in Mumbai, it is important for you to present it in the right manner while selling it. When people come to visit, they pay close attention to all the parts of your home and that includes your bathroom. Here are steps to successfully showcase your bathroom while selling your home:

1) Keep it Clean:

Goes without saying, but inexplicably some people still forget to clean their bathrooms before letting others get a peek there. Assume your boss is coming to visit and you’ll find yourself scrubbing off the most stubborn marks from the sink and toilet!


2) Replace your toiletries:

When people come to visit your home for an assessment, make sure the usual toiletries are taken out and replaced with the best ones from your collection. Let the bathroom look like it is a part of one of the luxury flats.


3) Ensure adequate toilet paper

 It may sound absurd, but if your bathroom isn’t stocked with toilet paper, it casts a negative impression in the mind of the potential buyer.


4) Fix the leakage

It’s very important that the bathroom doesn’t leak. If it does, get it fixed by a plumber before 
the people come in to have a look at your apartment.
