In the fast-paced real estate industry, cleaning services are often used by Real Estate Agents to demonstrate to their clients a high level of professional service. But the benefit of professional cleaning services is much more than that. Whether you’re a professional Home Stager or a Realtor staging a property on your own, the money you spend on Home Staging Cleaning Services is an investment that will always pay off in the long run.
According to a survey conducted by the American National Association of Realtors, 78% of Real Estate Agents think that a clean house is easier to sell, and 72% say that a clean property raises the cash value provided by purchasers.
As one of our long-term Toronto real estate partners recently said,
"With real estate, presentation is everything. To drive sales and get the greatest price for my clients, I always insist that their properties be kept immaculately clean and tidy at all times. That’s why, before I even list a home, I usually encourage hiring Custom Maids Cleaning Service. Cleaning a property consumes a lot of valuable time that I might otherwise be spending closing deals, so I need to get my clients hooked up with a cleaning service before we even get started. It saves me time and it lessons my stress.”
There are many benefits for Real Estate Agents who make use of Professional Cleaning Services, including selling properties quicker, maximizing profits and freeing up time.

Here are a few of the ways that we can help you . . .
GETTING A HOME READY TO SHOW
Obviously, homes that command the most attention in a competitive market are those that look their best. And, as you know, many full-service Realtors hire professional Home Stagers to ensure that their listings show well and draw high-quality home buyers ready to pay a higher price.
But Home Staging doesn’t come cheaply, and a growing number of homeowners – especially those with homes in lower price ranges – are unwilling to cover or share in the cost for professional Home Staging. In such cases, the only option for the agent is “economical do-it-yourself Home Staging,”
Whether you’re a Home Stager or a Real Estate Agent handling your own Home Staging, CUSTOM MAIDS can help you get started with . . .
Home Organizing and Decluttering Services
Before Home Staging Cleaning Services can begin, the first step is to mindfully decluttered and organise the home.
When “clutter” impacts the functionality of a home and makes spaces unusable, it’s difficult for buyers to imagine themselves living in the home. A CUSTOM MAIDS Housekeeper can assist your seller in decluttering and organising her/his home, which will make the home more appealing to potential buyers. The homeowner can work alongside our Housekeeper or have the Housekeeper take on the task independently.
To learn more, see . . .
Home Staging Cleanup Service
Once a home has been organized and decluttered, it’s time to give it a top-to-bottom Deep Cleaning Service.
If you’re a Home Stager, we can do the job for you.
If you’re a Realtor undertaking a do-it-yourself Home Staging, we can help you too. When your client doesn’t have new appliances in the kitchen, we’ll make sure that the existing ones are spotless. And when the bathroom fixtures are old and dated, we’ll scrub them until they sparkle like new.
We’ll give the home a detailed DEEP CLEANING SERVICE from bow to stern, sure to impress even the most discerning potential buyer.

Home Staging Cleaning Checklist
This Home Staging Cleanup Checklist is a Guideline.
Our Cleaning Services can be tailored to meet your clients' specific needs.
KEEPING A HOME PRESENTABLE DURING THE LISTING PERIOD
When you’re marketing a property, it goes without saying that you want it to be maintained at all times, ensuring that your Home Staging efforts have the maximum impact.
And we can help you with that. We offer . . .
Sporadic Home Cleaning Services
(on an “as-needed” basis)
When you have an open house or showing, you can schedule us for a one-off, spruce-up Cleaning Service (the day of or the day before), so we can whip the home into shape and give it the touch-ups it needs to be warm and inviting.
Recurring Home Cleaning Services
(on a regular ongoing basis)
If you want to ensure that the home is ALWAYS presentable and ready for showing, you can set up ongoing cleaning services – twice weekly, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly.
To learn more about our sporadic and recurring cleaning services, see . . .
AFTER A HOME HAS SOLD
To help your clients ease the transition from their former home to their new home, we offer three services which they may find helpful . . .
Move-Out Cleaning Services
(at the former home)
Regardless of how well a home is maintained, it always needs Cleaning Service once it’s emptied of furniture and the movers have left their scraps and debris behind.
CUSTOM MAIDS’ Move-Out Cleaning Services will ensure that the home is as good as new before the new owners take possession.
Our Move-Out Cleaning Service provides great relief for the seller (who wants to focus on her/his new home). And, of course, it can be mentioned as a “bonus” when negotiating the sale with the buyer.
To learn more, see . . .
Move-In Cleaning Services
(at the new home)
While your client is busy wrapping up the packing at her/his former home, CUSTOM MAIDS can provide Move-In Cleaning Services at the newly-purchased home.
We’ll ensure that the new home is spotless and ready to move in! Your client will be able to put her/his dishes directly into spotless kitchen cupboards; put food stuffs directly into a clean fridge; prepare a first meal in an oven that looks like new; and use bathrooms that are spotless.
