So, you have decided to sell your home? Attracting the attention of the right buyer at the right price isn’t a matter of instructing an agent and leaving it all to luck. Spending some time preparing your home for sale can help you to attract more buyers and potentially increase the number of offers you receive and the value of them. Here are some tips to get your home ready for the market:
Declutter and depersonalise: Remove any unnecessary items and put away personal knickknacks like family photos, memorabilia, and anything that can distract potential buyers from visualizing themselves and their belongings in the home.
Deep clean: Give your home a thorough clean, including dusting, vacuuming, and wiping down all surfaces. This will make your home feel more inviting and well-maintained.
Repaint and touch up: Consider repainting walls or touching up any areas that may need a fresh coat of paint. This can help give your home a renewed look.
Make repairs: Fix any visible damages such as broken tiles, leaky taps, remove scuff marks and dings in the walls. It is time to do all those little jobs you have been putting off. A well-maintained home gives buyers a sense of security that the property is in good condition.
Stage your home: Rearrange furniture and décor to create a welcoming and inviting atmosphere. Consider adding fresh flowers or plants to create a more natural and cosy feeling.
Improve the curb appeal: Make sure the exterior of your home looks attractive and well-kept. This can be done by making sure the windows and frames are cleaned don’t forget the front and back doors, weeding beds and planting flowers, clearing debris and making sure children’s toys and tools are put away, finally mow the lawn and sweep the paths.
Good quality visuals: High-quality photos can help attract more buyers and make your home stand out in online listings. Make sure there is a floor plan included in your property listing and consider having a video created of the property, this virtual look around will help attract the right buyers for your property and will help create more viewing requests.
