Is Spring Really “The Selling Season”?

With the arrival of spring, the real estate market is set to blossom in a big way.

Spring is traditionally referred to as “The Selling Season”.

With the arrival of warmer weather the gardens are looking at their absolute best and sellers are able to present their properties well so that the first impression a potential buyer gets is a very favourable one.

Attention to Detail is Crucial!!!

With many properties coming onto the market it is imperative to go and stand in the street in front of your house and try to imagine that you are looking at it for the first time as a possible buyer. Try hard to pick faults. It is better for you to find them and fix them rather than have a buyer see them. Try to judge your home by the standards of a buyer, not by your standards – see it through their eyes.

Make sure that any minor repairs to the fence or gate are attended to and any flaking paint is removed from eaves or facia boards. Sweep the paths and remove any winter weeds from the garden beds.

There are a lot of small things which you can do inside your home to give it that extra “sparkle” and appeal; our consultants can help you with advice and recommend
a tradesperson if you need one.

A few minor touch-ups here and there can make the difference of thousands of dollars in your final selling price.

If you are thinking about selling and taking advantage of the Spring Real Estate Season, the first thing you need to do is find out just what your property is worth in the current market.
