Selling Tips
Modernise dated fittings.
It's arguable that some folk love "dated". The majority don't. If your house is looking more 80s than "now" you may want to consider zapping the worst offenders. Nasty wallpaper can be covered with a lick of paint, cupboard doors and tiles can also be painted over, and door handles are easily replaced. wateringbury property hunters will mainly prefer a "blank canvas" to a scheme that sticks out as being dated.
Bully Your Estate Agent
Dont rely on your estate agent in the area of wateringbury, to put the required effort into drawing up the sales particulars and populating the Window Card details. Always scrutinise what they have prepared and don't be frightened to request that they make changes to these items if you feel that they haven't put the required effort into this work.
Be Energy Efficient
If you're selling your home then wateringbury buyers will be looking for energy efficient properties, as these will be cheaper to run, and easier to sell.
A good wateringbury 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 wateringbury 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.
