A well maintained house is more appealing to a broader range of purchasers and screams out it’s “well cared for” and that the seller is trustworthy with no hidden agendas (a desirable attribute that buyers will pick-up on). Potential purchasers mentally reduce the price of your house every time they spot a problem that requires fixing and they want to move in without having the hassle of making any repairs. It’s therefore essential that all maintenance issues are rectified before placing your property on the market, to ensure a quicker sale, at the best price.

Take care of issues such as:

  • filling holes and plaster cracks in walls
  • straightening cupboard doors and replacing, tightening or polishing door and cupboard handles
  • re-grouting tiles and replacing cracked tiles, torn or worn carpets
  • touching up paintwork on chipped doorways or repainting walls
  • Replace or repair cracked windows
  • Oil squeaky doors
  • Replace blown lights
  • Repair leaking taps and toilets
  • Repair grouting or sealant  around baths and basins
  • Ensure that doorbell/ intercom, security system, motorised gates and garage doors are operational
