The Right Value
A Kettering-based estate agent will know the sensible marketing value of a property such as yours, located in your area of Kettering.

Quality Marketing
A good Kettering 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 Kettering 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 Kettering 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.

Pet Problems
If you own pets, then consider re-housing them while your try to sell your home. At the very least, keep them out of sight during viewings, and make sure that you have removed as much trace of them as possible. Cat litter trays, bowls of pet food, pet hairs, stains on carpets and scratched up walls or furniture can be off-putting. There is also the issue of allergies to consider. Many people are allergic to pet hairs and dust. A home that sets off a reaction may put off otherwise keen Kettering viewers. Consider calling in a local Kettering cleaning specialist to revive carpets.

De-Clutter
It’s your home in Kettering, you’ve lived there for years, it feels like part of you, and you love it. But if you’re selling, then it’s time to move out mentally! Try to pack away as much personal clutter as you can. Leave a few, favourite items out so that the house doesn’t feel like a Kettering hotel, but otherwise present your viewers with a blank canvas, somewhere that they can imagine making their own.
