The first thing you need to do when you decide to sell your house is to find the right agent. Your agent will discuss with you the benefits of different sales methods, the best way to advertise your property, and perhaps improvements to maximise your selling price.
A well presented home says “welcome”. It doesn’t have to be a “show place” but it should appear a comfortable home in which to live. Your home will be one of many on the market at any time. You need to present your home in such a way to get the best price within a set time. Experience shows that vendors who make an extra effort on presentation usually achieve a quicker sale and sometimes, a higher price.
Outside your home first impressions do count. To start with check the overall view of the yard, fences, driveway, windows, doors, roof and walls from the street.
Have all minor repairs done. Sticking doors and windows, loose door-knobs, faulty plumbing, peeling paint etc. may affect your sale. Make sure gates open easily.
Arrange outdoor furniture attractively to give a look of leisure.
Tidy the flower-pots and have plants healthy and watered. Trim shrubs and mow lawns, including the footpath. Clean out sheds. Toys and garden tools should be stored.
Clear the gutters, clean windows, screens, doors and awnings. Spread gravel on unsealed driveways and lay pine bark on unsightly surfaces.
Sweep driveways and patios. Remove clothes from the line. Make sure a pool is sparkling clean. If you own a dog, take it for a walk during inspections.
