Walk through your home as if you were a potential buyer, what would you see? Most buyers come to inspect your home with a vision and a dream in their mind of what the property will look like and how it will allow them to create their desired lifestyle. To make the right impression, it is often the little things that can make an enormous difference.
Remember, you’re selling a lifestyle, so the more attention to detail you provide, the more exciting your home will become, and purchasers will want to stay for longer or come back for a second look. Furniture can dramatically affect the mood of a property and create a lifestyle illusion. If your furniture is not up to scratch consider updating or hiring through a rental company. As part of our service, we’ll be happy to introduce you to a wide network of trusted and experienced tradespeople and suppliers who can assist you to prepare your property.
