What renovations to better sell your property?
When you sell your property, take note of the parts that are in poor condition. Oftentimes, it's the insulation, electricity, or even deteriorating paint.
To find a buyer as soon as possible, you may have to renovate your real estate. Some only require minor repairs while others would need a total overhaul in renovations. This is what’s usually called “Home Staging.”
What is Home Staging?
Home Staging consists of three crucial points: declutter, refresh, and depersonalize.
This technique redevelops the property the owner wishes to sell, whether it’s a detached house or a unit in an apartment building. The decluttering and refresh aspects improve the quality of the real estate while the depersonalizing aspect lets potential buyers see it as a clean slate.
A1 Real Estate advice:
- Do not rush for major development work (breaking a wall, opening a kitchen ...)
- Do not neglect the exteriors (weeding garden, adding flowers, cleaning the gate, plaster, terrace, pool maintenance if necessary, etc.)
- Focus on energy renovation work
- Upgrading the indoor installation of electricity
- Upgrading of an indoor gas installation
Why do work before selling?
