The Christmas / New Year period is such a lovely time. The weather is warm, the days are longer, and people are more excited to be outside in the sunshine rather than huddled up at home. The start of a new year gives people an infectious sense of renewal, so if you’re looking to sell, now is a great time. If you’re keen to list your property up for sale over the next few months, then it’s time to roll up your sleeves and prepare now.
It’s time for a little cleaning
Often, sellers think that buyers will see a past the mess, but in reality, buyers judge from the moment they step into your home. So, the best way to begin is with the basics – setting out some time to clean your home from top to bottom to create a charming ambience.
Declutter everywhere
The best way to give likely buyers a genuine sense of space is to eliminate all the unnecessary clutter and present more breathing room.
It’s time to be ruthless! Tour your home and think about what you can shift or get rid of collectively. A cluttered house can make your home seem crowded, and that’s the opposite impression you want your buyers to be thinking.
Spruce up the garden
Jump into the garden and create a charming surrounding to embrace potential buyers. Perhaps purchase a set of bright plants and pots, rake up fallen leaves, give the lawn a mow and those edges a trim, remove the weeds and fertilise long before your home opens. You will quickly find that your garden will come to life.
Styling your home
When somebody looks through your home, they take everything in and make a judgement based on the entire picture. It’s hard to imagine a lifestyle when every room looks very ordinary and lived-in. Take the time to research and design out an aspirational appearance for each room that encourages people to think about how they would utilise the area if they were to buy it.
