| Countertops | Remove all personal items from the counters and make sure they are spotless. |
| Medicine Cabinets | Leave only minimum items in the medicine cabinet. Buyers usually don't peek in, but it happens. |
| Shelves | Leave no personal items on shelves, but replace with a couple of knick-knacks that give the room a friendly look. |
| Under the Counter | Same as under the kitchen counter - everything must go. Use a scented stick-on to get rid of musty smells. |
| Tub / Shower | Get rid of the soaps, shampoos, and everything else that is cluttering the shower nooks and tub rims. You want the bathroom to look like one you would expect to find in a five-star hotel. |
| Shower Curtain | Remove or replace it, especially if there is mold growing on it. |
| Towel Racks | One or two towels only; more racks and towels make the room look smaller. |
| Kitty Litter Boxes | This is a difficult one for cat lovers, but the litter box has to go somewhere out of sight. Many times, buyers will enter the home, smell the litter box and make a u-turn out the door. Getting a friend or neighbor to take kitty when you're showing the home can help. |
