Increase The Likelihood Of A House Sale With Amber’s Tips
The total number of property sales fell by almost 40% in September in the UK and Nationwide have predicted an 8-10% decrease in house prices next year.
However, there are plenty of buyers out there who are looking to purchase their next home, so if you are looking to sell in the not-so-distant future, you can make your property more attractive to them with a few simple changes. You could even start a bidding war!
Get organised with the paperwork you need
If you don’t have the correct paperwork to sell your home at the conveyancing stage, you could delay a sale and even have it fall through.
To prevent a hold up, it’s beneficial to gather your paperwork ahead of putting your property up for sale.
Those essential documents include the property’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), a FENSA or CERTASS certificate for any window replacement you’ve had done, land registry documents and potentially planning permission or building regulation certificates if you’ve previously invested in an extension.
Ensure the inside of your home feels light and spacious
Potential buyers need to be able to visualise living in your home and if it feels too cramped it will put them off. Make your property feel roomier by creating a light-filled home.
Something as simple as cleaning your windows can welcome more sunlight inside your home and you can also place mirrors in certain places to reflect more light.
Other ways to create the feeling of spaciousness is to choose a light colour scheme in your home, remove anything placed in front of windows and combine smaller pieces of furniture so floor space is maximised. Those looking to seriously sell their home could also invest in a skylight or add feature doors with a large proportion of glazing, like bi-folding or sliding patio doors.
Replace your outdated windows with modern replacements
The HomeOwners Alliance recently published their findings of a survey that declared “Windows in good condition (no signs of rot or flaking paint” as the most important kerb appeal feature of home. The response was decisive with 71% of respondents answering this way.
