Top tips to help sell or add value to your house
Top tips to help sell or add value to your house:
- Give your garden a spring clean. Give the grass a cut, jet wash patios and decking, tidy up the flower beds, give the shed or fence a quick coat of stain.
- Remove the clutter from the inside and give it a clean. Anything you haven't used in the last few weeks your unlikely to be using anytime soon so box it up for storage or sell it to pay for the move. Your house will seem more spacious and cleaner.
- Clean the windows inside and out also wipe any marks of walls and wood work.
- Give the walls and woodwork a fresh coat of paint. There is nothing better than gleaming white woodwork and fresh walls but, remember to keep it neutral.
- Clean the carpets. Remove the stains or the smell of pets or smoke. You can either hire a machine from your local supermarket or DIY store. If you don't fancy doing it yourself there are always offers on groupon or the internet for this service.
- Lighting. Swap the bulbs in fittings for the maximum they will take(see the fitting) This will brighten even the dullest of rooms.
- Smells.
- Put some fresh flowers out, burn incense sticks or buy a plug in air freshener. This will cover up any smells and create a fresh smelling environment.
- Curtains and blinds. Replace where possible faded curtains or blinds as these will make the property look old and dated.
- The above are all relatively cheap and easy things to do. If you do need assistance with any of the above please feel free to contact us 07596493021
