what a shitty thing, always having to keep things spotless incase there is a showing. I'm a neat person...but far from perfect.

    I know I'm in the minority, but what's wrong with keeping a house looking like that all the time?
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    My wife and I are experiencing the same thing right now. We found the house of our dreams and they accepted the offer but we can only get it on the condition that our house gets sold. We now have our house up for sale and only three weeks to sell it. Pressure is on and it sucks :( We're doing our best to make our house "barely lived in" but I totally agree, it's not easy!

    It's also kinda strange coming home after a showing and knowing people you don't know have been in your house. This is my first house I'm selling so this feeling takes some getting used to.

    Are you still bitching about this house cleaning thing!?!?!?!? :D


    it does suck trying to live you're life in a house, but trying to keep it looking "lived in" but not "LIVED in".

    i think you should tell ............ ah never mind. :)
    Peace, Love.

    dont mention houses.. we moved 2 months ago and my mum was just obsessed with keeping the house clean as there was an endless stream of people looking at our old house, sucked ass.

    But all the packing and moving is about 99 times worse.. well only becuase we had too much stuff moved as we downsized :P

    good luck :D

    Nothing wrong with it, it's just hard. You must be one of those natural neat types and/or germophobes ;) I've tried really hard to to be like that, but all it takes is one rough day at work and BLAMMO! Pigsty.

    As I am cleaning my house today, please send your cleanliness-is-next-to-godliness vibes my way. :)

    Not a germaphobe by any means.

    I just have a routine for cleaning that I stick to with no exceptions. I know myself, and I know that once I start cheating or skipping it, pretty soon the house will need professional help. I'd rater spend 2-3 hours a week doing routine cleaning than basically burning the house down and starting over.

  • Figure how many times are you going to sell a house...

    Once or twice maybe three times in your life on average.

    meh...so what...
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Well it kinda sucks too because I don't want to sell it...we're getting divorced and neither of us can afford it alone.
