Insider Spring Cleaning Tips to Refresh Your Home This Season
Spring Cleaning Tips – Spring is officially here, and that means it’s time to open the windows, let the sunshine in, and give your home a much-needed refresh. Whether you’re planning to list your home this season or just want to create a more inviting space, spring cleaning is the perfect way to start. Here are some helpful tips to get your home sparkling clean and ready for the warmer months.
1. Start with a Plan
Before diving in, take a few minutes to walk through your home and make a checklist. Prioritize areas that need the most attention and break tasks down by room. A little planning goes a long way toward making your cleaning sessions more productive.
2. Declutter First
Spring cleaning is the perfect excuse to let go of the things you no longer use. Donate, sell, or recycle items that are taking up space. You’ll feel lighter, and your home will instantly look more organized.
3. Deep Clean Room by Room
Focus on one area at a time:
- Kitchen: Clean out the fridge and pantry, wipe down cabinets, and degrease appliances.
- Bathrooms: Scrub tiles and grout, replace shower curtains or liners, and deep clean sinks and toilets.
- Living Spaces: Dust ceiling fans, wash windows, vacuum upholstery, and clean baseboards.
- Bedrooms: Flip mattresses, wash bedding, and reorganize closets.
4. Don’t Forget the Windows
Clean windows inside and out to let in more natural light. It’s a small change that can make your entire home feel brighter and more cheerful.
5. Freshen Up Outdoor Spaces
Curb appeal matters, especially if you’re thinking about selling. Sweep porches, clean out gutters, power wash siding and driveways, and plant some spring flowers for an instant lift.6. Replace Air Filters
Spring allergens can make their way indoors. Replacing your HVAC filters and having your system serviced will keep your air clean and your home comfortable.
7. Use Natural Scents
Skip the heavy artificial fragrances and go for essential oils or a pot of simmering citrus and herbs on the stove. A fresh-smelling home is always a welcoming one.
8. Get the Whole Family Involved
Assign tasks to each family member to make cleaning quicker and more fun. Put on some music and turn it into a team effort!

Thinking About Selling This Spring?
Spring cleaning is also a great first step in preparing your home for the market. A clean and clutter-free home not only feels better—it also photographs better and makes a stronger first impression on buyers.

Why Does RE/MAX Results Stand Out Among the Competition?
Simply put: Relationships. We pride ourselves not only in our professional service but more importantly in the personal touch we bring to our business. Has an agent/lawyer/contractor/vendor ever treated you like you were just another paycheck? The reason our clients come back time and again and refer all their friends and family to us is because they know we are part of the family.
Genuinely caring about the people we serve enables us to do things other agencies can’t. Rest assured, we will ALWAYS have your best interest at heart and work vigorously to get you the best deal possible on your home or business.
The relationships we build with our clients enable us to work 100% by referral. The reason we are able to give top notch service to our clients is because our clients refer us a constant stream of quality family and friends to assist in their real estate needs. While other agents are out making cold calls and chasing “potential” leads, we are freed up by our referral base to service our clients like no other broker can. We are never too busy for your referrals!
