Selling Tips

Every sellers endeavour will be to get the best price possible for their property. We believe that in order to do so, the seller should try and think like a buyer. Understanding that buyers are more likely to pay a premium price if they fall in love with a property means that not only common sense, but even a plan around all the senses should be adopted.

Generally speaking invest in elbow grease to improve aesthetics', a broom, a mop, a paint brush and the old trusty hammer can go a long way to better presenting your property prior to marketing commencing.

We recommend thinking about the following;

Visual appearance

First impressions do count, weed gardens and the mow lawns
Trim over grown trees and hedges
Hide the rubbish bins
Empty the letter box
Wash the windows inside and out
Depersonalise, remove posters and pictures covering entire walls
De-clutter! Less is definitely more
Make the property shine

Smell

Weather permitting keep windows open allowing fresh air to circulate
Love your pets but be mindful about litter trays and other remnants
Cake and coffee can be over the top - but unwanted odours should be removed

Feel

Temperature control - heater on in winter - cooling in the summer
Cleanliness - make the beds and wash the dishes
Kitchen and bathrooms are critical to be best presented
Neat well organised cupboards enhance storage capacity
If possible avoid being home for inspections - both you and the buyers will feel much less uncomfortable
