As Spring is fast approaching its now time to take care of the annual tasks, such as spring cleaning the house, tidying the garden, washing the windows.
Although this may seem like they are very selfish tasks, these are an essential part of your home selling toolkit. Think of it this way, when you go into a shop is it tidy or messy? You need to make your house look and feel like a show home and not just on the inside.
As Kerb appeal is the most important part of selling your house, as research shows that over 90% of people who are looking to buy a house will visit the house prior to making any viewing appointments at all. So make sure you get rid of the winter blues from your house and remove all the dead stuff in your garden. Making your house look as appealing as possible without needing to go in.
Just remember the viewing process as follows.
1. Kerb Appeal
2. Front of House
3. First Impressions (smells, sight and sounds on entering)
4. The grand tour
5. The specifics (Kitchen, Bathroom, back garden)
Just try to visualise the journey a potential buyer takes and make sure its a tidy one.
