10 Top Tips For Successfully Selling Your South Ockendon Home in 2022
M&P Estates knows that it's not enough to simply list your property for sale. You need an effective marketing plan. Marketability means everything in this industry. M & P has put together the top ten ways to best capitalize on its potential value-add advantage over other homeowners who may be looking at similar properties around town!
1. Make sure that your home is "show-ready" with minimal clutter and distractions
Removing any distractions and clutter from the property so the potential buyer can picture themselves living there instead of focusing on what's missing or not working correctly.
2. Keep your home well-maintained to maximize its value
If you're thinking about selling your home, it's essential to maintain the property for maximum value. The more well-kept and updated your house is, the better chance that someone will be interested in purchasing it.
3. Clean up after yourself.
We all know that the key to selling your home is to keep it clean and tidy. You may not think you're doing anything wrong by leaving a dish in the sink or dirty clothes on the floor, but these things will leave an impression on potential buyers.
4. Consider how your place smells.
You want to be careful of what smells are lingering in your home. For example, if it is morning, whilst you might like the smell of fried bacon, it will give your home the air of a 'fast food cafe'. One trick to make your place seem welcoming is to put a little polish onto your radiators. It will give your home a welcoming and 'cared for' scent. You may also want to grab a few scented candles – just be sure not to mix smells and not overwhelm them too much!
5. Keep your lawn and gardens trimmed and well-kept.
Homeowners looking to sell their homes should consider how they maintain the exterior of their property. Trimmed and well-kept lawns and gardens can create a good first impression for buyers, which may, in turn, encourage them to schedule a tour and learn more about your house.
6. Plant some flowers or other greenery near your front door.
It's essential to make sure that the first thing buyers see has a good impression. One way to do this is by planting some flowers or other greenery near your front door. This will make a home stand out and help sell the property faster!
7. Use professional photographs to showcase your home
A good picture can be enough to sell a property. When buyers are looking for their next place, they'll search through thousands of listings, so it's important that yours stands out from the rest. That means highlighting all the things that make your home different from other properties
8. Add an attractive description of the interior and exterior features of your house.
When you're selling your house, it's important to have an attractive description of the interior and exterior features. The description should include all of the most influential aspects that buyers look for when searching online listings.
9. Video and virtual tour of your home.
Video walkthroughs and virtual tours are becoming more and more popular because they allow potential buyers to see the inside of your home even if they can't visit it in person. So make sure you take advantage of this great tool by adding to your listing so potential buyers can get the complete picture!
10. Ensure that your Estates Agent uses Social Media.
To get the most out of your home sale, you should hire an estate agent experienced in social media. This will help to increase your property's exposure and drive more people through open house events.
