Let’s get started.
A question we are often asked here at CPG is “how to sell my house quickly for a good price?” If you follow the advice in this post and pay attention to the ten things that sell houses then you should secure a sale fast and at the best possible price.
1. Improve the Exterior of your House
First impressions are very important and the exterior of your house is the first thing a potential buyer sees. If the exterior of your house looks tired and unloved then this will put some buyers off. It will suggest to them that you have not taken care of your property. Make the exterior of your house very presentable to increases your chances of a quick sale at the best price.
2. Brighten up the Interior
Potential buyers will not be impressed if the interior of your house appears dark and dreary. Get creative here and make your interior look as light as possible by placing mirrors in the right place and going for a lighter colour scheme.
3. Change the Wallpaper and Paint the surfaces
If you have not changed the wallpaper in your house for years and the paintwork looks faded and even dirty then you need to give this a makeover. Choose wallpaper and paint that will give a light and airy feel to the interior of your home.
4. Clean your House
Thoroughly clean your home before you put it onto the market. If you have layers of dust everywhere then this is likely to suggest to a potential buyer that you do not take care of your house. Make sure that the kitchen and bathroom are spotlessly clean.
5. Fix any Damage
Do you have any broken tiles in your bathroom or kitchen? Maybe there are some cracks in some of the walls? Replace any broken tiles and use filler to cover up any small cracks that you have in the walls. Basically, fix everything that needs fixing.
6. Ensure that your Kitchen is the Showpiece
Nice kitchens sell houses fast. Many surveys have shown that the kitchen is the most important room in your house when it comes to selling your property. If you have tired looking kitchen cabinets then invest in new ones or have them professionally painted. Make your kitchen the showpiece of your house.
7. Get rid of Clutter
If you have a lot of clutter in your house then this can make the rooms look a lot smaller. Few potential buyers are going to be impressed with clutter filled rooms. Put your clutter in storage while you are selling your house if you cannot bear to part with it.
8. Make sure that your House Smells nice
Potential buyers will notice any unpleasant smells in your house immediately. If you have any unpleasant smells then most people will run a mile. Check your carpets for unpleasant odours. If you suspect any then have the carpets cleaned. Use whatever tactics you can to make your house smell nice.
9. Add Pretty touches
Get curtains for any windows that do not currently have them. They will add a pretty touch to your house. Nice looking plants are a good idea as are pretty flowers. Make your house as pretty as you can.
10. Make your Garden presentable
Most potential buyers will want to have a look at your back garden so make sure that it looks presentable. Cut the grass and get rid of those weeds. If you have any junk in your garden then take it to your local dump. If you have a garage then make that presentable too.
