Have you ever wondered why some houses achieve great sales prices while others are passed in at auction or languish on the market, slowly losing their value in the eyes of buyers?
What is the magic formula for a successful property sale?
Our agents will tell you there’s no “magic” but a combination of logical thinking and careful planning.
When planning the sale of your home, you should consider which features are the most powerful selling points. Why not ask yourself now, “what would buyers find most attractive about my home?”
Whether it’s the chef’s kitchen with European appliances, the deluxe en suite or your proximity to schools and shops, you should always accentuate the best features in your sales campaign.
By choosing a great agent, you’ll also get their insights into what buyers will love most about your home.
One area that owners often overlook is the garden.
In today’s market, buyers put a premium on a tidy, low-maintenance garden.
Here are some tips for preparing your garden in time for the spring selling season.
- Immediate Impact: Your front garden will be every buyer’s first experience of your home. So, let’s make a good impression. Create what we agents call “curb appeal”. Make sure the lawn is mown, shrubs and hedges are trimmed and the flowerbeds are colourful and weed-free.
- Emotional Purchase: Most homes are an emotional purchase. A beautiful garden can tug at the heartstrings of buyers who value a peaceful, private outdoor haven that’s away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
- Truly Memorable: With our spring selling season in full swing, buyers will visit many properties over several weeks. After a while, it all becomes a bit of a blur. However, a lovely garden will make your home memorable.
- Outdoor Entertaining: Inviting family and friends to our home is one of the great pleasures of home ownership. Investing in landscaping to enhance or create an outdoor entertainment area will add substantial value and attraction to your home.
