Nope-you should clean, paint and carpet or at least clean, power wash and steam clean-but that is like saying "isn't it enough to just graduate from grade school?" No, it is not enough, you need to go on to high school and college and so on. To clean, paint and carpet a home is the beginning. It is laying the ground work. You still have to set the stage and create the emotion. Carpet-although nice and often warm and fuzzy-elicits no emotion. See similar questions...

Regular household paint on a floor is not usually an issue, because of our unique abrasives. Zirconia cloth belts should definitely be used to remove regular household paint from a floor. The black bitumen-type paint which frequently ‘picture-frames’ floors in old houses, usually about a metre all round the edge, can be more of a challenge. However, with the zirconia abrasive, and the instructions in our book on how to get rid of it, you should get it all off. See similar questions...

This is largely a design choice. If your heaters are standard height, we recommend that you order your wainscot with a base height 1-3" above the heaters.

We get this response a lot. Some people just think that no one will buy their home until it is in tip top shape. Well, at least that is what the Realtors will tell you. And actually, they are partially right if you want to sell it to an end user home buyer. However, we are Real Estate investors and believe us, we aren't scared off by anything cosmetic or even structural. You probably wouldn't believe the horrible condition of some of the homes that we have bought in the past. See similar questions...
