A short list of priorities is more helpful than a long list of everything a home could possibly need. Share any delicate finishes and areas you would like left alone.<\/p>\n<h2>Give surfaces a little space.<\/h2>\n<p>Loose papers, clothing and everyday belongings can make a surface harder to reach.
