Buyers decide quickly, and a clean car signals a well-maintained one. A full detail before listing is one of the cheapest ways to improve how a car presents.
What buyers notice first
The interior smell, the state of the carpets and seats, the condition of the glass and the shine of the paint. These are exactly what a full detail addresses.
Timing
Detail just before photographing the car and again, if needed, right before showings. Photos taken on a clean, sunny day pay for themselves.
