Want to sell your home quickly Home makeovers are all the rage, but you dont have to go through a Changing Rooms-style transformation to make your property more enticing to prospective purchasers. Heres a few tips on how to accentuate the positive side of your abode:
If youre taking photos of your home to give to the estate agent, make sure they show your home from the best angle. If you can, its best to take them during the summer months.

When people come round to view, make sure your place is tidy an obvious point, perhaps, but I can personally testify that the contents of someones underwear drawer on a bedroom floor is not designed to attract a buyer. Dont leave last nights washing-up in the sink.
Try and remove/hide any items of furniture that make your home look cramped. Use the space you have to its full potential.
Dont decorate your whole property just before your home goes on the market - potential buyers might think youve got something to hide. But do make sure your walls and floors are clean and if a lick of magnolia is required then get your paintbrush out.
