Spring is around the corner, and with the holidays over it’s time to start thinking about selling your home. As spring approaches, now is a great time to get your house on the market. Here are some tips to help you prepare your home, find the best estate agent, and get all the financial side of things in order for your onward purchase.
Preparing Your Home for Sale
The first step when it comes to selling your home is preparing it for sale. A few simple changes like painting the walls and decluttering can make a world of difference and make potential buyers more inclined to put an offer on your house. You should also consider hiring a professional cleaner or gardener who can come in and give everything a good polish before viewings start.
Choosing an Estate Agent
Once you’ve got your house ready for sale, it’s time to find an estate agent who can help you get the best possible price for your property. Start by asking friends and family if they have any recommendations, then take a look online at review sites so you can see what other people think of them. You also would be wise to look at the presentation each agent delivers. Do they have amazing looking photos?, a video walk around?, Floorplans? and 3D virtual reality on all of their property listings? Flintshire has no shortage of estate agents but some are better than others so do your homework beforehand!
Getting Financially Ready
It’s important not to forget that selling a house involves more than just finding an estate agent – there is also all the financial paperwork that needs attending too. Make sure you have everything ready such as mortgage documents, bank statements and proof of income before putting your house on the market as this will make it easier once you decide to accept an offer. If you need advice on mortgages or loans be sure to speak with an expert in the area who can help guide you through the process.
Conclusion: Selling a house can seem like a daunting task, but if you take these steps into consideration then it doesn’t need to be! Preparation is key - make sure everything looks nice inside and out; hire someone reputable with plenty of experience; know exactly what finances are involved; and always remember that Keystone are here if ever you need support or advice! Good luck!
