Summer Selling

28 Jul 2011

A recent survey conducted by Home Sale Network amongst its members reports that 97% of Network respondents achieved an average 93% of a property’s asking price in June 2011 – demonstrating the calibre of estate agent we have on our Network.

Handpicked to join Home Sale Network, Peter Heron makes sure all of their customers are prepared for that summer sale with a sensible asking price, professional property photos and excellent presentation. Here are their handy hints for preparing your property for summer selling…  

• Make the most of your summer garden – trim your lawn and use bright flowers and shrubs to create a welcome entrance (front garden) or relaxing getaway (back garden).
• Let that summer sun light up your home – pull all your curtains back when prospective buyers are visiting the property to create a light, airy space.
• No one likes a musty room, so in rooms that are rarely used, ensure you open windows to let the fresh air in.
• Windows are typically a room’s focal point and many prospective buyers will be looking out of them, so make sure they’re clean and welcoming.
