Tips for Preparing your Home for Renovate

Tip 1 - Less is more

This is not the easiest step but it’s key in allowing the potential buyer to really see themselves in the home. The goal here is to make the space feel uncluttered and like a blank canvas so buyers can imagine their personal belongings on display.

Tip 2 - A touch of paint

When walls and floors are clean, tidy and fresh, they pretty much go unnoticed. When they’re dirty, scuffed, old or outdated, they stand out like a sore thumb.

Tip 3 - Let there be light

Adding stylish lamps in dark areas is a simple but effective change that makes a huge difference.

Tip 4 - Is it spick and span?

As everyday human beings, we rarely have our home in perfect condition. If we live in a space for a long time we become accustomed to dirt on skirting boards, or unclean windows. But these are the areas that are noticed very quickly by potential buyers.

Tip 6 - Speak to the Experts

You don’t have to do this alone. It’s normal to lean on your agent to get your home to the highest standard. The team behind them will work with you to make suggestions and discuss your budget so you’ll get the biggest bang for your buck.
