Getting your home ready for sale
By Lorena OlivaresMaximise appeal with minimum effort.
First impressions
Buyers decide within seconds. Clean, tidy, neutral and well-lit homes outperform cluttered, personalised ones.
Quick wins
- Declutter and depersonalise
- Deep-clean every room
- Touch up paint where needed
- Mow the lawn, prune the hedge
- Fix small defects (dripping taps, broken handles)
Worth investing
Professional photos, a fresh paint of the front door, and possibly home staging can lift the price by more than they cost.
Frequently asked questions
Should I renovate first?
Usually not — buyers prefer to renovate to their taste. Stick to repairs and presentation.
