7 Tips to Selling Your Home in the Summer Market.
Let’s face it: there is never a bad time to sell your home in London! But summer is a fantastic time of the year to think about selling your home.
Here are a few tips on getting the most for your home, and even possibly getting multiple offers!
- De-clutter your entire home. Keep ‘knick knacks’ down to a minimum and take down a few of those family vacation photos. This will help other people be able to see themselves in your home and help to not distract them when they’re viewing your home.
- Make sure your garden and garage areas are as clean and de-cluttered as possible.
- Leave your home when there is an agent showing it. There is nothing worse than a seller who is hovering over a buyer and their agent when they’re trying to see a home. If there are special things about the home that you feel your agent may forget to provide buyers, then make a short list and leave it on the kitchen counter for agents and buyers to see.
- If you have AC units, turn them on before a showing. If not, then leave some windows open so that the home can be ventilated. If your home feels HOT and almost as if there is poor ventilation, that could deter them from wanting to live there.
- Make sure your home is as clean as possible. Hire a cleaning company to do a deep clean before listing your home. I’ve seen so many buyers who were unable to see past a mess.
- If you’re trying to sell a home that is vacant, try to go to the home every 5-10 days. There is nothing worse than opening a kitchen drawer and seeing a dead cockroach…
- Turn ON all of your lights even if it’s daytime. It sounds absurd, but it always helps your home appear more “light and bright”!
