Someone fouled my toilet

First time home seller here.

We had an early morning showing last week and when I came home after they left the whole house smelled like .. sewer.

Turns out someone pooped in the master bath and didn't flush it all the way.

I'm a germaphobe as it is but this freaked me out and I'm grossed out. Since I'm divorcing, I really need to sell.

How do I keep this from happening again?

Or is this what I'm supposed to expect?

I'm immunocompromised and the realtor knows this. Do I tape the toilets shut? I'll be leaving hand sanitizer and wipes in all the rooms from now on. There's already a sign asking people to use masks, shoe covers and wipe things down that they touch.

Towels are removed before each showing.

None of the faucets were used (all the sinks were dry so they didn't wash their hands after pooping)

I get people wanting to try faucets to check water pressure etc and peek in closets to try things out and imagine this as their own house... but pooping is a bit much, to me.

Am I overreacting? I'm so grossed out and dread the next house showing.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
