What Can I Do To Improve My Property's Overall Value?

ASK A C21 AGENT: Presentation and marketing are the key factors to increase the overall value of any property.

A good first impression generates a higher level of interest and the increased likelihood of multiple buyers inspecting your property. First impressions primarily come from your property listing so quality photos, floor plan, and ideally a video are of the utmost importance.

Most potential buyers will conduct a drive-by prior to inspecting. Ensure the front of your home is well presented including garden maintenance, painting to create a crisp well-maintained feel and even some lovely pots and plants at your front door.

Inside the home should be decluttered, allowing easy access to all rooms during inspections and maximising the perception of space and light. Professionally styling your property has been proven to add perceived value, increasing your sale price and generally offering a high return on your investment. I recommend my vendors imagine themselves as a buyer, standing in the street looking at the home and proceed to inspect the home front to back. Make a list of everything that could be improved or better presented prior to listinq your home for sale.
