It's not like it is on HGTV. We have sellers who are sick, in financial trouble, going through divorces, or have tenants.

I have some homes that I wait weeks/months waiting for them to get it PERFECT because that's the best strategy. I have other homes where if the lawn can get mowed and the kitty litter scooped out, we're ready for an open house.

If I was only willing to deal with clients who took all my advice, I'd be out of business pretty quick.
