Top notch house presentation
A no-brainer but something so simple that many people seem to struggle on!
Outside of property and garden
- Trim your grass. Overgrown gardens can be a massive turnoff for potential buyers. Get it looking neat and tidy.
- A bit unpractical but hiding your rubbish bins can make the property look less cluttered and less messy.
- People like privacy so if you can try and make overlooked gardens a bit more private.
- Make sure your windows are clean and free from dirt. It will make the property look run down from the outside but inside will also be brighter.
- Leaving the outside light on during the winter months will give the property a warm feeling and make it more inviting.
Appearance of property is a big seller
- This should be a no-brainer but make sure you clean up before you have any viewings. No one wants to see your dirty food plates and children toys.
- Another obvious solution. Make sure your beds are tidy!
- Lamps can make dark corners look brighter and rooms cosier.
- Make the house smell good. Scented candles or fresh flowers will work like a charm.
- De-cluttering is always good and will help potential buyers visualise themselves in your property easier.
Fix up the interior of the house
Décor of the house can cause potential buyers to either hate or love the property instantly.
- Remove any brightly painted walls in the property as most people can really be put off by bright colours. Neutral colours seem to be the trend right now and if you’d like to add some colour to a room you can achieve this via flowers and cushion covers.
- Replace any peeling wallpaper as this can make the property look run down.
- If you have a mould/damp problem you will need to sort out the problem as it’s very bad for your health and of course, very unsightly.
With these home improvement & staging tips you should be able to make the most your Christmas marketing period and achieve the quick sale you’re looking for.
