Take Note: The Floor is what We Feel First

On a Tight Budget?

If you happen to be on a strict budget and do not have much of an option but to use what you got at home and make a quick sale, there are some solutions for your case. You do not have to go all out and spend on a professional to do the job, but if your carpet is in an obvious bad condition, you'll have to put some effort.

The simplest thing you can do is to baking soda and a vacuum, which you probably have around the house. Spread the baking powder onto the carpet and let it sit there for a couple of hours so the carpet absorbs it. Then, vacuum it thoroughly. This should get most debris and odors out of the carpet.

If you happen to have a lot of old stains that you can't get rid of, try using white vinegar in a spray bottle and a dish towel to pat onto it gently.

You want to make sure not to scrub the towel on the stained area, as it will only make it worse. repeat the process of spraying the white vinegar solution and patting the towel a few times before you use a vacuum to extract it completely.

​You may have to repeat this process a few times before it is out completely.

Just remember that when you're selling your house, depending on your area, you could be entering into a tough competition. And that means you will have to try to get as much as you can out of your property. Knowing how the smell and feel can differentiate a buyers' opinion, it is wise to invest your time on your carpet and nail that part of the house.
