so this things got to balance and you have to take care,
so quick, superficial grunge is just what you need
and those prospective buyers will most quickly recede
Some old carpet offcuts tossed around on the floor
with stale red wine stains to upset the decor,
let people think that what they see is what they get
and make sure you don't wash and smell highly of sweat
Make sure that those blinds are continually down
with no light in the place everyone surely will frown,
peeking here, looking there in this dingy old house
not fit for a human or even a mouse
Make sure that you smoke, so they waft in a mist
and hopefully the inspection will no longer persist,
a smelly old scent that is easily inhaled
and all that is worth buying will be certainly veiled
Keep windows shut so no fresh air will get in
some heavy metal music will surely make their minds spin,
globes in the sockets a mere 25 watt
this house is for sure not a heavenly spot
But beware snap inspections to check YOU do right
or you'll soon be told to leave and stay out of sight,
so whatever you do be the quick change artiste
and hopefully you'll be the one who is smarteest

Adding your comment:
You would be proud of me hon as I already have most of those bases covered (says the cave dweller) Even down to moving my rug back from the fire so the burn marks from the previous tennants are exposed.
