First impressions are critical and a property must have what is known as 'kerb appeal' - many potential buyers drive by to see whether a house appeals to them and if it doesn't they'll just keep on driving! Your house should be appealing and welcoming, one of the nicest on the street, yet in keeping with the style of the neighbourhood.
Spending lots of money improving the interior is wasted if the exterior puts most people off before they even get inside the door. Fresh paintwork, a well-kept garden, and the overall first impression of a cared-for home are important factors in getting buyers inside.
Additional tips:
- Paint the front door and polish the letterbox and knocker
- Make sure your front garden and driveway is neat, tidy and well kept
- Put a tub of blooming flowers on your doorstep to add immediate appeal
