Prepare your home for a viewing

First impressions are vital when it comes to showing your home to viewers. Property expert Alex Goldstein reveals his three top tips on presenting your home to leave potential buyers clamouring to make an offer.

Top Tips on Presenting Your Home

When you’re selling your home, it is the little touches that help. A couple of neat little tricks for you:

Firstly, make sure you have your windows professionally cleaned, inside and out, so they have a sparkle finish to the property. It really does makes such a difference, especially on large windows overlooking the garden, say.

Another tip is to ensure that any overhead light bulbs are high-wattage. If you have the energy-efficient versions, ensure that you have them turned on in advance of any viewings so they’ve got time to warm up and get to full candescence. Equally for sidelights, make sure you’ve got them appropriately positioned in dark corners, but ensure they’re a lower wattage. You want your rooms to feel cozy and comfortable, rather than emblazoned in dazzling light throughout.

So final point, your front door, and to either side, should be in show home condition. Repaint your door, have some potted plants on either side. First impressions really do count.
