Selling your home can be an exciting but lengthy process, with a large amount of work often required to set your house sale up for success.
Whether you’re hoping to sell a small terraced property, detached four bedroom family home or a hefty mansion, your home might need some work before you choose to put up the “for sale” board.
These changes may be decorative, or require additional work to the structural integrity of the home, but it will enable you to sell your property faster.

5 Top Tips for Remodelling Your Home for a Sale
If you’re hoping to renovate or remodel your home before selling, here are five top tips to set you up for success.
Opt for Neutral Colours
For any potential house buyer, they will want to see a blank canvas of a home to realise their dream of what their ideal family home will look like.
Neutral colour schemes such as pastel colours, whites, creams, yellows and greys can keep your home decor blank and show off the space offered.
If you want to find a colour scheme that works for you, you can use Dulux’s online colour chart effortlessly to pick which colour suits your rooms the best – all without making a single colour swatch!
Fit a New Kitchen
One of the biggest considerations to families, couples, or individuals when viewing a home for sale is the size and practicality of the kitchen.
Your kitchen should make the most of the space it has to offer with clever storage space, appliances such as an oven and hob, as well as adequate countertop space for food preparation.
Companies such as Lawcris can provide the best quality countertop materials for your kitchen. Not only are these countertops stylish, but they are also incredibly durable and able to withstand all the traffic and wear and tear of your day to day activities in the kitchen.
Use Tasteful Soft Furnishings
Soft furnishings play a vital role in establishing your property as a cosy home and can really enhance the environment that potential buyers will see when they enter your house.
You can use throws and soft cushions on your sofa, as well as curtains to soften harsh window frames and offer some tasteful patterns effortlessly. These homey touches offer comfort to the viewer, as well as a taste of your family’s personality.
Check the Physical State of Your Home
Although the aesthetics are important, so is maintaining the physical structure of your home. Make regular checks on your roof, insulation, door frames and other structural components to ensure that they continue to be watertight, wind proof and generally weather resistant.
You might also want to check the guarantee on your glazed windows, as many will need replacing every 20 or so years.
Advertise on Social Media
In the modern day of house sales, many agencies now advertise listings on social media to appeal to a wider audience and attract a faster sale.
By sharing your house listing on social media, you too can encourage a faster sale. You can even share your post on community Facebook groups to appeal to those in the local area, as well as further afield.
