If you’re selling your home and have pets, there are a few things you need to do to prepare for showings.

Make sure your pets are not home during showings. Go for a walk with them or give them to a family member or friend while showings are happening. If you’re at work, put them in a kennel or outside. You want to make sure any potential buyers won’t feel threatened or apprehensive due to allergies.
Remove any signs of pets in the home. Make sure the kitty litter is tucked away in a closet and toys are stowed away for the showing.
Make sure there are no offensive odors. A good, thorough cleaning should take care of any pet odors in your home. We actually work with a great company that leaves your home smelling fresh and clean. We’d be happy to get you in touch with them.

If you have any questions about selling a home with pets, or if you have any other real estate questions, please don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you!

What our happy Polk County clients have to say

"I was transferring from Hawaii to Florida; I had seen the property online and had my son go look at it. He told me it was worth putting an offer in on the house and it went great from there. Sunny Fullhart was professional, very helpful, and resourceful. She was always available for me if I had questions. The transition was very smooth. I arrived back in Florida on May 18th, 2014 and went to settlement on May 19th. I couldn't have been more pleased. The small touches she did to welcome me into the neighborhood are unbeatable!! I've never had a realtor who was so on top of things. I will recommend her to all my friends or anybody who asks! Sunny is outstanding!!"

"We would definitely recommend The Butler Team. We originally tried to sell our home "by owner", but we had our buyers back out. Luckily, we listed it our home with Renee Butler, and we sold it in no time at an even higher price. We were extremely pleased with the great help and service we got from her. There were so many little touches that made it a good experience then, like providing a company moving van, and other things that even continue today, like the yearly Christmas cards and customer appreciation events. The Butler Team is the best!"
