Help Your Home Sell Faster with Our Proactive Cleaning Service
3/19/2020 (Permalink)
Real estate agents know that a clean and fresh-smelling home sells faster—but it’s about more than just smelling good. Especially when Americans are concerned about coronavirus exposure, it is essential that any home going on the market be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized, both for the owner’s and potential buyers’ peace of mind.
Although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes that "transmission of novel coronavirus to persons from surfaces contaminated with the virus has not been documented," research suggests the coronavirus can live on surfaces from a few hours to a few days. Therefore, it may also be possible to catch the virus by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it, then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. The CDC also says, “Cleaning of visibly dirty surfaces followed by disinfection is a best practice measure for prevention of COVID-19 and other viral respiratory illnesses in households and community settings.”
Beyond the relief sellers and buyers will feel knowing that the risk of coronavirus or other pathogen has been greatly reduced, SERVPRO’s home cleaning can result in:
- an increased market value
- a more easily-passed home inspection
- a faster sale
