Spring turns For Sale boards into Sold By boards

The Spring weather has started to turn For Sale boards into Sold By boards in Spennymoor seemingly as quickly as bulbs into daffodils.

The change in weather brings about an interest in moving and viewing property again. One thing I've noticed during my time in Spennymoor is that people generally time time and pride in their gardens. This will ensure that the property is ready for viewings and that it looks better on the property portals such as Rightmove and On The Market. This in turn brings about more interest in the property, more viewings and potentially a better sale price, usually all in a quicker time. This blog shows advice to estate agents as the weather gets better-

So what can Spennymoor house vendors do differently to make their property stand out from the crowd?



Well firstly you need to ensure that the outside is up with the crowd, in terms of how the gardens look. And you need to make sure that your estate agent knows this and is prepared to market your property using this. If the flowers have bloomed since your home went in to the market, then get the estate agent back round to take their marketing photos again, otherwise they'll look dated. Get them to take the photos when the sky is looking good and when you're ready.

At the same time, you want them to take photos of the inside of your house. It's time for Spring cleaning (otherwise known as decluttering) and for any little jobs that need doing around the house. A viewer that sees several small jobs that need doing will also wonder what large jobs are hiding behind them, and this isn't the impression you want to leave on someone who you want to buy your home.

Some more ideas can be found in my Kindle book, How To Sell Your House-
