Keen to sell your home in Mumbles as quickly as possible? Worried that your Mumbles property is still on the market? Although finding the right estate agent is a crucial part of getting your property sold, there are a few things you can do yourselves to help move the process along.
Try these tips to attract prospective buyers looking for a property for sale in Mumbles, and it won’t be long before you have a few good offers pouring in, and you can enjoy the search for your next new home! Read on for our eight essential tips to help you get your home in Mumbles off the market quicker:
1. Declutter
Let’s start with the simplest (albeit slightly tedious) thing you can do to help stage your home in Mumbles for viewings. It’s time for a deep decluttering session!
Getting rid of all the clutter allows interested buyers to see the full potential of the space during viewings. And not only will it make your property look more spacious, but it’ll also mean that your eventual packing becomes much easier.
2. Put Some Of Your Personal Items Away
Although you don’t want your home in Mumbles not to look like a home, you also don’t want it to look too much like your home. You want potential buyers to walk in and be able to easily picture themselves living there.
Removing family photos and more personal items can help make that possible. Viewers will be able to walk around and envision themselves and their own families living there.
3. Invest in Professional Property Photography Of Your Home In Mumbles
As much as you may fancy yourself as a good iPhone photographer, now’s the time to turn to an expert. A professional photoshoot organised by us at Belvoir Mumbles will help your home in Mumbles get a lot more interest.
Most estate agents are affiliated with a skilled property photographer and can offer this service. They’ll light up your home to make sure it’s showcased in the most visually appealing way.
4. Ask Your Estate Agent To Create a Video Tour
While excellent photos are a ‘must have’ for property listings, few listings up until very recently also have a property video tour. Video tours can really help capture more engaged leads to your listing of your home in Mumbles.
Ask your local estate agent whether they offer this service to help your online listing stand out in the Mumbles area. If they don’t, see if you can find a professional videographer who’d be happy to create a short video of your property for a small budget.
We wouldn’t recommend creating this yourself, but you should definitely share it on social media once it is created!
5. ‘Neutralise’ Your Furnishings
Another way to make it easier for viewers to picture themselves in your home in Mumbles is to create a more neutral setting. Turn to more muted colours for things such as your bedding and curtains.
An easy way to give your home more mass appeal is to strip any wallpaper and give it a fresh lick of neutrally coloured paint. Opt for lighter colours to reflect light and make your home look more spacious.
6. Add Some Homely Touches
We know. We just asked you to remove personal items and make your home in Mumbles more neutral. But hear us out.
Although many of the little decor changes mentioned above will help turn your property into a more neutral living space, you don’t want to strip it of all personality.
Add little touches such as soft throws, scented candles and fresh flowers. These are safe options which can help your home in Mumbles look homely without alienating any potential buyers.
7. Use Social Media To Share Your Property Listing
Although it’s your estate agent’s job to advertise your property, there’s no harm in you sharing the online listing. We recommend sharing the listing in your network.
You never know; someone on your Facebook Friends list may always be looking to relocate to Mumbles and have had a crush on your home!
8. Hire a Great Estate Agent
We’ve saved the most important tip for last. The estate agent you choose will make all the difference in how quickly your property gets sold.
Although you may be tempted to go with the one with the lowest fee – don’t. Interview and research any estate agent thoroughly before you opt for them. Asking all the right questions when vetting estate agents will save you a lot of time (and money) and ensure your property is off the market before you know it!
