Most viewers are more likely to tell an estate agent, than the owner, what they don’t like about a property. This means that if you use a disley estate agent, you are likely to get honest feedback on what aspects of your property need dressing up to achieve a quick sale, at the best price.

Selling Tips
Tidy The Garden
Perhaps you are not much of a gardener, your lawn is un-cut and the whole place is looking rather messy! Well it’s time to get busy. A badly presented garden may well be off-putting to disley buyers. Cut the lawn, trim the edges and remove as much junk and clutters as you can. A few plastic pots filled with colourful flowers could really change the appeal of your property.
Be Energy Efficient
If you're selling your home then disley buyers will be looking for energy efficient properties, as these will be cheaper to run, and easier to sell.
A good disley estate agent will be able to advise you and point you in the right direction for making your home more energy efficient.
An energy assessor will come and assess your property for a current and potential Energy Efficiency Rating and a current and potential Environmental (CO2) Impact Rating. This will be included in your HIP pack, which must be completed before you market your property.
Repair / Paint Fences
If you're putting your disley property on the market, then you may want to consider getting your garden fences painted / repaired.
Privacy is an important issue for many house buyers, and a tidy, secure, well-maintained boundary with neighbouring properties will be a big plus, rather than "another job that will need doing".
In the same manner, ensure that hedges and trees are trimmed and tidy.
Clean your windows
If your windows or mirrors are looking grubby, consider mixing some white spirit vinegar with a little water and washing up liquid, popping the mixture in a spray-bottle and giving your windows and mirrors a clean. (use this cleaning tip at your own peril!). The washing liquid will act as a de-greaser and the vinegar will act as an anti-foamer / streaker. Grubby windows or mirrors will create a bad impression on disley property buyers.
