Secure A Speedy Summer Sale
While buyers may be won over by the charms of an open fire and cosy Aga in winter, the key to a quick summer sale is to bring the outdoors in, creating a bright and breezy home.
Here at email4property, we’ve put together 4 ways to get your home ready for a summer sale.
First impressions count Clear pathways, trim unruly hedges and weed driveways to create the impression of a low maintenance front garden and guarantee a good first impression. Give the exterior instant appeal with flowers in pots and hanging baskets that can be easily transported when you move.
Let in light Allow extra light to flood into rooms by pulling back curtains and opening blinds and strategically place lamps to lighten dark corners. Remember to wash windows and clear clutter from windowsills to make the most of attractive views and vistas.
Freshen up Brighten up and revive tired looking rooms with a fresh coat of paint in a lighter shade, making them look immediately smarter and bigger. A large mirror opposite a window will almost double the amount of daylight.
Extend outwards Arrange outdoor furniture to show buyers how the garden could be used as additional living space in the summer. In larger gardens, patio areas and decking should be jet-washed to rid them of unsightly stains and parched lawns should be watered and freshly mowed.
