Boosting Your Property’s Appeal: Expert Tips from Andrew Cardwell
Preparing Your Property for the Summer Market
Cardwells Estate Agents, as the temperatures rise and the days grow longer, summer becomes the perfect time to showcase your property for sale or rent. Whether you are a homeowner looking to sell or a landlord seeking new tenants, effectively preparing your property can significantly enhance its appeal and attract potential buyers or renters. Here’s a quick guide to help you get your property ready for the summer Bury property market:
Enhance Curb Appeal and Outdoor Spaces
First impressions matter, and the exterior of your property sets the tone for what potential buyers or renters can expect inside. Andrew Cardwell, Managing Director of Cardwells Estate Agents, emphasises the importance of curb appeal. Mowing the lawn, trimming hedges, and planting colorful flowers can create an inviting atmosphere. Power washing driveways, walkways, and the exterior of the property removes dirt and grime, while repainting the front door and touching up any peeling paint gives the property a fresh look.
Highlight the potential for outdoor living by sprucing up patios, decks, and gardens. Clean and declutter outdoor furniture and add cushions and accessories for a cosy vibe, particularly for marketing photos and videos. Creating outdoor entertainment areas with BBQ grills, fire pits, or seating arrangements can showcase the property’s versatility. Ensuring the garden is well-maintained with trimmed bushes, weeded flowerbeds, and a healthy lawn further enhances the appeal.
Focus on Interior Updates
Make your property shine from the inside out by focusing on interior updates. Andrew Cardwell advises decluttering living spaces to help potential buyers or renters envision themselves living there. Applying a fresh coat of paint to walls in neutral tones brightens up rooms and creates a sense of space. Repairing any visible damage, such as leaky guttering, cracked tiles, or loose handles, presents a well-maintained property.
By paying attention to these details, you can maximise your property’s appeal and attract the perfect buyer or tenant. For more advice or information, visit us at our Bury Town Centre office on Market Street, opposite The Met and next door to Wax and Beans.
