Accompanied Viewings
Most estate agents in Kensington will offer to undertake accompanied viewings on your behalf. They will show off your property to viewers, drawing attention to all of the best features. 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 Kensington 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.

Quality Marketing
A good Kensington estate agent will be an expert at marketing your property. They will know how to advertise your property in all the right places. Ideally your Kensington property needs as much exposure as possible, to maximise interest from potential buyers. Typically an agent will advertise your property on property portals, such as Rightmove, and in your local or Kensington property post. Other forms of marketing include window cards, handouts, mail-shots and open-house days. Remember, the frequency and quality of the content of the advertising is just as important as where it appears.

Rent Some Storage
If your house is very cluttered, then you may want to consider renting a storage unit in Kensington. Removing large, unnecessary articles of furniture and other clutter will give the appearance of larger rooms. Viewers like to see a reasonably blank canvas, that they can really imagine making their own. The disadvantages are the weekly costs of storage, and the double-handling of the furniture, that you will now have to move twice.

Mirror Mirror
Do you have a small room in your house? A carefully selected mirror can really help to improve the perception of the size of a room.
