If you have decided to sell your house, we think that you should give some thought to whether it is necessary to improve it in order to sell it. A small investment on the house may help you to sell it sooner and it may even make it fetch a larger sum of money. You must bear in mind some details which will enhance your home. In the blog of Estate One we give you 6 pieces of advice.

1. DO NOT SPEND A LOT OF MONEY

You can improve the appearance of your house without spending a large amount of money. Which things may give a negative impression of your house? The living room curtains? That particular lamp? An old fashioned tap in the kitchen or in the bathroom? You can greatly improve a first impression focusing only on small details, without having to carry out alterations in the structure of the house.

2. TAKE THE ENTRANCE INTO CONSIDERATION

The entrance is of critical importance, as it gives you the first impression of the house. Is it bright? Does it have plants? Is it cosy? Is it newly painted? If you improve all these things, the future buyer will be positively impressed.

3. CREATE FREE SPACE

Sometimes we think that we can improve a room filling it with furniture and ornaments. However, it is normally the other way round. A crowded space can be oppressive and stifling. Maybe you should consider removing some ornaments and pieces of furniture in order to give better sensations.

4. CLEAN THOROUGHLY

You must clean your house thoroughly before putting it up for sale. It will make a world of difference. You should insist on the bathrooms and the kitchen as well as the doors and the wardrobes and cupboards. As a result of this, your house will give a good impression.

5. DECIDE WHICH IS THE BEST TIME TO SHOW IT

If your house has plenty of light and is very bright, we think that it is a good idea to show it during the day, and if it possible, on a sunny one. On the other hand, if your house does not have much light, then you can show it on a cloudy day or even in the evening. Is your house well isolated and therefore noise-free? Then, you should open the windows wide so that the client can verify this. You must always highlight the advantages of your house.

6. CHEER UP THE AMBIENCE

Small details can change the aspect of a house. For instance, you can place an ornament in the bathroom, a charming cushion on the sofa or even a beautiful vase in the kitchen.
