Alex and Maureen Bartolo believe that a well-prepared home is the key to unlocking unparalleled success in the real estate market.

Here are our top tips for presenting your property:

Pavement Appeal

Make sure the front of your property looks appealing and inviting with a weed-free garden and some attractive pot plants.

Pavement appeal encompasses the overall condition and aesthetic appeal of the exterior ground surfaces of a property. This includes driveways, walkways, and pathways leading up to the entrance. A well-maintained and visually appealing pavement not only enhances the overall curb appeal but also communicates a sense of care and attention to detail.

Cut The Clutter

You want the prospective buyer to be able to imagine their own belongings in the property, so de-clutter to keep things tidy. Less clutter will also help make rooms appear larger. A clutter-free space not only enhances visual aesthetics but also allows potential buyers to envision the full potential of each room. Streamlining your living spaces by removing excess items, personal belongings, and unnecessary furniture is a proven method to create an inviting and spacious atmosphere.

Freshen Up

Get rid of smoke or pet odours. Open the windows, brew some fresh coffee, and brighten the place up with some fresh flowers.

Pets

Always clean and tidy up after your pets, and take them out of the property during open times. 

Clean And Bright

Before every viewing give your property a once over, ensuring that windows are clean inside and out – it’s surprising how much difference it makes to the light.

Fix It

From leaking taps to a broken bulb, make sure the minor repairs are taken care of. A lick of paint will freshen scuffs and scrapes in the woodwork. Basic maintenance work will help to ensure buyers don’t find any faults.

Lighten Up

Increase the sense of space with mirrors and lights and leave all internal doors open.

Warmth

Create warmth by preparing your home to suit the temperature of the day. If it’s cold, light fires, turn on patio heaters and heating. If it’s hot, turn on fans and cooling systems.

There is a thought in the real estate industry, that in order to succeed in selling your home for the best possible price, you need to spend a considerable amount of money on your property prior to going to market. Alex and Maureen Bartolo believe this is not always the case. For example, if you were to spend money on replacing carpets and re-painting your property, your prospective purchaser may very well dislike your choices, and they may also choose not to pay any additional money for your property even though you have outlaid your additional funds which could have been avoided. We see many purchasers wanting to put their personal touches to properties that they have purchased.

Having said that, each property is different and as your local real estate agents, we will advise you on the best way to present your home prior to going to market, because as mentioned in the above tips, having a decluttered, clean and tidy home makes the world of difference when presenting your property for sale.
