PRESENTATION IS KEY

You dont 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..

MAKE YOURSELF A CHECKLIST

Create a checklist of all the things you need to do well in advance to ensure youve covered everything.

TIMING OF SALE

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.

PROFESSIONAL STYLING

This can be particularly beneficial for vacant properties to make them appear more homely and functional.

GET A BUILDING AND PEST INSPECTION

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.

DETAIL ALL OF THE INCLUSIONS OR EXCLUSIONS

so that buyers know exactly whats included in the sale i.e. ight-fittings and window coverings.

METHOD OF SALE

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.
