Pets, carpets, & flowers vs allergies.

I love my pets but pets can stop your home from selling.

Allergies are a real factor for many buyers.   Pets, carpets, and many floral fragrances may trigger allergies.  Be aware that your house maybe over looked if you don't remove or minimize allergies items of buyers.

Consider relocating your pets or with your pets if possible.  Consider a extra cleaning measures and removing all signs you have a pet like pet food, bowls, toys, treats, dog houses, signage etc. 

If  you have hardwoods in good shape consider removing the carpets or rugs and refinish if necessary or if the budget allows.

If you absolutely can't eliminate the allergy at the time of showing maybe a concession or offering professional cleaning prior to closing may interest a buyer that would otherwise by pass your home.
