Tips
for selling your home this Spring
With the weather hotting up and spring
flowers and trees in bloom; now is the time to use the abundance of the
beautiful flora and fauna to help sell your home. Freshly-cut flowers add an
instant spring feeling and lovely aroma, whilst bright flowerbeds and hanging
baskets can give your property that extra curb appeal.
It’s
also the perfect time for spring cleaning and de-cluttering, to make your home
feel airy, light, and spacious. Simple things like rearranging your furniture,
can give viewers the impression of space and when it comes to accessories, less
is always more.
Spread the word by telling
family, friends, neighbours and local businesses that you’re selling. Social
media is also a great FREE marketing tool, including Twitter, Pinterest and
Facebook, so use them to your advantage. You never know where an unexpected
buyer might spring from!
Be sensible about the value
of your property, don’t just opt for the highest valuation, it might be
tempting, but if your property is still on the market months later, it has cost
you money.
Finally, check you have the
title deeds and (if you’ve made any changes to your home) planning consents and
certificates. The wrong time to start looking for them is when you’ve sold the
property. “Apart from anything else,” says Howard Elston of Aylesford
International, “delays in the legal process are the most common reason for
properties not selling, and can give a buyer time to change their mind.”
