Before you think about putting your property to market you must first consider the look and feel of your property from the buyer’s point of view. First impressions is everything, a property is sold within the first 10 minutes of a buyer walking through your door, to attract a buyer your property should be attractive, clean and clutter free. It helps greatly for your property to be painted or decorated in neutral colours to give a clean and fresh impression of buyers entering your home for the first time. |

Making sure that the front and back of your property is appealing is very important, trimming trees have clean potted plants cleaning steps and fixing broken tiles all go towards helping to make up the minds of a prospective buyer. It helps to define the areas of the house to give the maximum effect ie bedrooms (try to make them a spacious as possible make sure the viewer can see storage or can see where they could put there own storage) the lounge again you want a feeling of space and light, bathrooms clean and tidy (white goods usually fear well here). |

It's important to have a fresh smelling home when prospective buyers come for viewings, try to keep animal smells down to a minimum you can even try to mask these smells with Popery and or fresh baked bread or even scented by candles. |

| Lastly it is a good idea to invite friends or neighbours around to walk through your home as a buyer would, get their opinions on how you could improve the appeal of your property, ask them where they think you've gone wrong and where they think you've gone right. | .gif) |
