Thinking about selling? The weeks before your home goes on the market are some of the most valuable. Here's where to put your effort.

Declutter and depersonalise

Buyers want to imagine their own life in your home. Clear surfaces, thin out closets, and put away personal photos and collections. It makes rooms feel bigger, too.

Take care of small repairs

Loose handles, dripping taps and scuffed walls add up in a buyer's mind. Fixing the small things helps the home feel cared for.

Mind the first impression

The outside of your home is the first thing buyers see, in person and in photos. Tidy the yard, sweep the entrance, and make the front door welcoming.

Let the light in

Open curtains, replace dim bulbs and clean the windows. Bright rooms photograph better and feel better in person.

Price it right from the start
