Pets And Selling Your Home

I love our pup Freddie.... most days... but not everyone does. Some can see a dog and instantly think of the damage it might do to a home. Some might look at a dog and see allergies. Some might see a less than perfect yard. Some might see happiness, and some might groan.

If we were to put our house on the market today, we would make all evidence of this guy disappear. We would hide kennels, food bags, food dishes, and any pictures of him in the house. We would make our home pet neutral so we didn't alienate a potential buyer who had less pleasant thoughts about a dog.

It sucks, and it is hard to do when you have pets, but it is incredibly necessary to help maximize your efforts when selling your home.
