Read on to find out more.
When it comes to selling your property, first impressions are key, therefore you need to make sure your house stands out from similar properties on the day of the viewing.
One of the most requested features at the moment, due to an increasing number of car users, is a designated driveway or parking area attached to your home.
By having such a feature you could see your property heading for a completion date – particularly in busy areas where parking is limited.
It is also good to consider a fresh coat of paint on your front door and exterior, as well as some fresh flowers to brighten up your home.
Another design style preferred by first time buyers and current home owners is open plan living. Following lockdown space is key for many potential buyers and they now look for equal sized bedrooms or even a spare bedroom to accommodate at home gym equipment or home working.
Most common layouts combine living/ dining or kitchen/ dining.
For advice on open plan living, click here for our blog ‘adopt open plan living to make the most of your apartment’. Although associated to apartments it can also be applied to family homes.
However all of this space needs to have energy provided at a reasonable price and that is why energy efficiency rating has become so important on any property listing.
It can be worthwhile to upgrade your central heating to help achieve the best price on your home and make it competitive against any new property being built.
And finally, none of these changes are worthwhile unless you complement them with a quality video tour/ images on your online listing. Only then will your home be presented in the best light.
