The
better your house looks to a potential buyer, the sooner it is likely
to sell, and, at a higher price. Preparing your property for sale should
not require a large budget - just some attention to detail! Do not hesitate
to ask me for advice on what will enhance the salability of your home.
For
that extra "Curb Appeal" on the exterior, pay particular attention
to:
- Lawns
- ensure they are edged, cut and watered.
- Consider
adding some showy plants or shrubs around your front entrance to welcome
potential buyers
- Hedges
and flower beds - Neatly trimmed hedges, pruned trees and weeded lawns
and flower beds make a great difference.
- Steps,
walkways, walls and patios - fill any cracks and patch crumbling edges
- Gutters
- Ensure gutters are clean and neatly aligned
- Roof
tiles and shingles - repair or replace damaged, loose or missing tiles
or shingles
- Doors
and windows - touch up any peeling paint or varnish and keep glass
clean. Maybe a new coat of paint on the front door will help!
- Reseal
asphalt driveways and keep the garage door closed
- If
a car in your driveway does not match the image you want your home
to give, consider parking it elsewhere until your property is sold.
On
the inside:
- Make
sure every room is clean and free from clutter including tables, kitchen
countertops, etc.. This will make your home appear bigger and brighter.
- Touch
up any faded, chipped, stained painted areas such as walls, doors,
window frames. Replace any cracked or broken window panes.
- Repair
any cracks, holes or other damage to walls, doors, wallpaper, etc.
- Clean
all appliances, especially cookers.
- Ensure
there are no plumbing leaks or drips from pipes, faucets, showerheads,
etc., especially in out of the way places such as attics or under-sink
cupboards.
- Ensure
air conditioning, heating, ventilation, security systems, etc. are
in proper working order.
