Maximising the value of your home
Decluttering Your Home
Decluttering is known to increase the value of your home as it gives a must better first impression, making a house seem more spacious, cleaner and, as the word suggests, less cluttered.
According to the Every Little Thing web site, decluttering your home can increase the value by 10% and we can understand why. Making a house feel bigger, lighter and more spacious can really help to sell the property. Not only that but decluttering can help sell your home faster. Imagine two properties of the same size, side by side, with very similar characteristics, what is going to set one apart from the other? If your home feels spacious and cleaner by having less clutter hanging about, that is going to be a real advantage. But how can you achieve that and what are the key items to put into storage?
We would recommend by starting with large items, furniture or other bulky possessions that you can live without while your house is on the market. Can you have four chairs around your dining table rather six? Can you do without a chest of drawers – remember you can put the contents of those drawers in storage too, or can you even do without one of your sofas, a wardrobe out of the spare room or a bookshelf and all the books on it? Remember anything you put in your storage unit means one less thing to shift on moving day! Next look at your walls, do you have a “rogues gallery”? Photos of your children in each school year or all your wedding photos that could live in storage for a little while? Clear walls help potential buyers picture themselves living there and it being their home rather than seeing it as yours.
Our last tip doesn’t even need a storage unit and is the easiest one. Do you have paperwork sat on the side all the time? Bank statements you don’t know what to do with, bills that need paying or takeaway menus? When you have a viewing all you need to do is put that paperwork under your bed covers! No one is going to look there, it’s quick and easy to do and you can get them back out once they’ve been. Easy!
