Thinking about selling your home? These few tips could help make the process a lot quicker and increase the value of your house. We know how confusing selling your home can be, that’s why we have created these five little steps to help simplify the process.
First impressions count
First impressions are everything when it comes to buying a house. Within a few seconds of walking through the door potential buyers could have already made up their minds. Spending some time tidying up the inside and outside of the house could help sell your property faster than you think.
Spring clean
Cleanliness and tidiness should never be underestimated. Each room should be cleaned from top to bottom, especially in high impact rooms such as the bathroom and kitchen. Always ensure your surfaces are cleaned and pay attention to the floors too. A sparkling floor can instantly lift the room. A deep clean will also make your home smell fresh and appealing.
Fix it
Dripping tap? Clogged-up gutter? These will definitely send the wrong message to potential buyers. From removing grubby dirt to replacing damaged areas of carpets, fixing all your problems before putting your house on the market is a smart idea.
Eliminate clutter
Clutter does not sell your home. It can make your space seem smaller and disorganised. Also, providing a blank canvas can help allow your potential buyer to imagine their own belongings in the property. So, by taking the time to remove as much clutter as possible, you will make your home look a lot more appealing and rooms could appear to be larger.
Keep it neutral
Keeping it neutral won’t put any buyer off. Potential buyers walking through your home will be able to plan to put their own personalised touches to the house without removing yours first.
Taking care of these simple things could help the process of selling your home. For any more advice on selling your property, call our team on (01482) 324010 and we’ll be happy to help.
