Selling Tips
There are a number of tips to follow to ensure you achieve the maximum possible sale price for your property:
You don’t have to spend a great deal of time or money to make sure your home looks its best. A fresh coat of paint, well-tended gardens, minor repairs, professional cleaning and de-cluttering will make a big difference to buyers’ first impressions.
Create a checklist of all the things you need to do well in advance to ensure you’ve covered everything.
This can be particularly beneficial for vacant properties to make them appear more homely and functional.
So that buyers know exactly what’s included in the sale i.e. ight-fittings and window coverings.
This allows you to find out any problems that might turn off buyers and fix them where necessary. A clear report is a big plus when selling.
Depending on the location and type of your property, it may be more beneficial to sell at a certain time of year. Ask your agent for advice.
Private treaty, auction and public tender are the three main options and each has its advantages for certain properties and in certain markets. Your agent will recommend a sales method they feel is most conducive to achieving the highest possible price for your property.
Presentation Tips
First impressions count!
Look over the following list of areas that may need attention when preparing the exterior of your property:
Lawn – Keep your lawns cut, with neat edges. Reseed any bare patches and perhaps fertilise for additional colour.
Shrubs/Trees – Trim branches where necessary, especially around windows to allow natural light into the house. Remove any dead limbs.
Garden Beds – If appropriate, plant colourful flowers. Also add mulch to beds and remove all weeds. Perhaps place showy annuals in pots near the house entrance.
Paths – Keep all paths swept
Windows – Repair any broken windows and wash all glass.
Eaves – Wash and remove spider webs.
Drains/Spouts – Unblock and clean.
Paintwork – Attend to any flaking paint after discussion with your agent.
Doors – Wash down your front door and its surrounds, polish brass fitting and repair any torn fly wire.
Fences – Straighten, repair or repaint only after discussion with your agent.
Junk/Rubbish – Remove all junk and rubbish, e.g. car parts.
Pools/Ponds – Make sure these are clean.
Garage – Keep your garage door closed
