Declutter
When hosting viewings, sometimes it’s best to make the home more neutral so that viewers can imagine themselves living there. The home ought to be decluttered when people are viewing – not depersonalised as it doesn’t want to appear to be a generic showroom.
Professional photography
This couldn’t be more important. Professional photography for your property is key to ensuring that online viewers see the property at its best, rather than through the lens of an iPhone. It’s key to ensuring that at face value your property is as appealing as in real life.
Clean, clean, clean
