When I visit a property for the first time a question that many people ask me is what can I do to my property before I put it on the market for sale? There are many perceived answers to this question that include declutter, a new kitchen or bathroom or perhaps build a conservatory, but invariably what is more important than anything particularly at this time of the year, is that you ensure that the external of your property is clean and tidy. This includes quite simply the grass, planting out the borders and other ongoing repairs to the external of the house such as the clearing of the gutters or the painting of woodwork. Remember before you buy anything or even an item of clothing before you try it, it is the aesthetic appeal of that product that initially attracts the buyer. So, therefore, in this competitive world that we find ourselves in with many new houses coming to the market since home information packs were suspended, make sure your property stands out from the rest and possesses the all important kerb appeal.
