Five top tips to sell your home

Selling your home needn’t be a stressful or drawn out process. Here are five top tips to save yourself valuable time so you can focus instead on securing your next new home.

1. Sort out your kerb appeal 

First impressions count, right? So it’s always a good idea to tidy up the driveway and outside garden, mow the lawn and hose down any brickwork to make it glisten

2. Make your home lighter

It might sound obvious but a lighter home creates the illusion of more space – whether that’s giving your property a lick of paint or even rearranging furniture to maximise window light, it will all help make your home more appealing

3. Be strategic with your timing

The property market traditionally picks up in the New Year as people begin to put those resolutions into practice. This can make January and February a great time to pick up interest more quickly than usual

4. Pay attention to detail

Nobody wants to walk into an empty space piled high with boxes so although it’s natural to start getting your possessions organised, bear in mind that a presentable, de-cluttered home will be far more attractive to a potential buyer. Spotted an overdue lightbulb change? Make sure it’s sorted

5. Be the ideal host

Everyone has different wants and expectations however if you can strike the right balance between letting a potential buyer roam your home freely and being on hand to answer any questions, you could strike the right rapport and be onto a winner!
