When it comes to selling your home, it is like anything else – you will want to present it in its best light! There are lots of people right now looking to buy a property, so you want to stand out from the crowd, and get the best price possible for your home! So before you start opening your door to potential buyers, here are the things that you should do to increase your chances of a quick sale for a good price…
Make sure that the estate agent you choose is right for you. They should ideally be local as they will have a lot more knowledge of the local area and they can advise you accordingly. Check to see if they have sold properties that are like yours and how much they sold for.
It is also important that once you have settled on the right estate agent that you have all the legal documents ready that you will need for the sale to go through – there is nothing worse than having to scrabble around for the right documents when you are busy trying to deal with the move!
Get your house ready for potential buyers by thoroughly decluttering – if necessary, move items into storage, this way it gives the impression of a larger home rather than cramped and cluttered rooms. A good clean throughout is also important – get professionals in to do a good job like this carpet cleaning Hereford based company Octokleen who will make the floors look as good as new and give the walls a fresh coat of paint in a neutral colour to give it that modern and light feeling that potential buyers will be able to see as a blank canvas.
