First impressions are important
" Make your home look it's best..."

Check the front of the house, cut the grass, weed any flowerbeds, invest in a hanging basket, even paint the front door. Put the bin out of sight. Empty the garage and park the car outside the garage.

Ensure when prospective buyers enter your property it smells fresh, try fresh flowers or a bowl of citrus fruits; or try smells such as coffee, fresh bread or vanilla. Open windows every day to bring fresh air into the house, opt for cleaning products with a 'natural' smell. Avoid cooking strong smelling foods such as fish before prospective buyers arrive.

 

Advice on when and how to sell
"Touch up any areas that may need freshening up, such as chipped woodwork"

Selling a house when the UK market is at it's busiest, during spring and autumn, is most effective. Selling slows down considerably during late summer and around Christmas.

It is advisable to be available for viewing at all times. You may wish to leave keys with your estate agent, but expect a phone call and as much notice as is possible.

Ensure prospective buyers feel comfortable. Offer them a drink and allow them space to look round the house. Allow your prospective buyers as much time as they need and offer nothing but the opportunity to ask questions.

A 'FOR SALE' board is a great way to advertise your home, every extra method helps. Try also advertising online on the internet.

Don't be put off by an early offer. Decide what price is acceptable to you and invest time and effort getting that amount.
