Now that we have a little snow on the ground showing homes to buyers has gotten messier. Persons touring homes need to take their wet boots off at the door. Having a sign by the front door that says “please remove shoes” certainly helps but having a large walk off rug or mat helps even more.
The rug should be thick and absorbent and placed close to the inside of the front door. It should be large enough to hold at least 3 pair of wet winter boots. If the rug is too small there will be a puddle on the floor from the wet boots, If there isn’t any rug sometimes buyers will just leave their shoes on and walk through your home.
