It's
nearly time for autumn, and that means that the holidays are coming! Are you ready to welcome visiting friends
and family into your new home? It might
seem like you have a lot to do, but relax; I've included a handy list of things
to take care of before your guests start arriving!
I hope
this list is helpful for you, and I hope you'll give me a call at (780)

estate in general)! I love to help and
very much enjoy being your friend and REALTOR®.
FIVE
QUICK TIPS TO PREPARE YOUR HOME FOR GUESTS
Plug it
in: Make sure that all of your appliances are in working order. The last thing you need with a house full of
guests is a broken dishwasher or washing machine!
Make
space: Clean out the dressers and closets in the guest room(s) to ensure that
your friends and family will feel comfortable and at home.
Baby-proof: If your house isn't already baby-proofed and
if small children will be coming to stay or visit, take a little time to ensure
that electrical outlets are safely covered, sharp edges are padded, and that
valuable knick-knacks are out of harm's way.
Light
your fire: Make sure that your fireplace and chimney are clean and in working
order. Gathering around the fire with
friends and family is a cozy way to spend time reminiscing and chatting.
Knock knock:
Take a walk through your home and inspect all doors and windows. If the doors, hinges or latches are sticky
or squeaky, make any necessary repairs before your guests arrive. This will ensure privacy for them AND for
you!
