Property turn-offs: 7 red flags when viewing a property🚫

If you're looking to sell your home or have recently put your property on the market, house viewings could highlight undesirable features that could deter prospective home buyers from making an offer…

Putting your house on the market?

To sell quickly and effortlessly, it's crucial to see your home from buyers' perspectives. Here's a handy list of red flags to dodge:

1. Clutter 🚫
Dirty rooms, appliances, or furniture sow seeds of doubt!
Keep your home clean and tidy to impress buyers.

2. Damp/mould 🌧️
Signs of damp and mould are major turn-offs!
Address these issues promptly to keep buyers interested.

3. Dark rooms 🌑
Brighten up! Add brighter light bulbs, and strategic lamps, and swap heavy curtains for sheer ones to create a welcoming ambiance.

4. No kerb appeal 🏘️
First impressions count! Spruce up your exterior with a fresh coat of paint, tidy landscaping, and a welcoming entryway.

5. Cracks 🏚️
Don't let cracks in the walls break your sale! Be transparent about issues and address them properly.

6. Overgrown garden 🌿
Tame the wild! Trim hedges, mow the lawn, and weed flowerbeds to impress buyers from the get-go.

7. Garish décor 🎨
Tone it down! Neutralize bold colors and patterns to help buyers envision themselves in your space.
