Want to Sell Your Home This Spring? Tips For Warrington Sellers

Spring is a great time to put your property on the market. If you’re thinking of selling this spring, now is the time to start planning. Here are some practical things you can do this week.

Jobs to do outside

Problems like dodgy chimneys, slipped tiles and broken or leaking gutters can put prospective buyers off before they walk through your door. As tradespeople like builders and roofers are often booked up well in advance, get some quotes and book them in.

Jobs to do in the garden

Gardens get neglected over the winter but can be a big selling point once spring arrives. You could start catching up on garden maintenance.

Jet-wash patios, driveways, garden furniture and outdoor play equipment to banish winter grime.
Do trees or shrubs need lopping or pruning? It’s better to get this done now before the leaves appear and bird nesting season begins.
Plant some spring flowers to add a splash of colour.

Jobs to do inside

The dingy days of winter can hide problems that the lighter days of spring will expose to potential buyers.

Do a room-by-room check. Look for any obvious faults that might put buyers off and need attention.
If you spot any damp or mould patches that have developed over the winter, arrange to get them investigated and fixed. The same applies to any steamed-up double glazing.
Do any rooms need a lick of paint? If you want to hire a decorator, get some quotes and book them in.
Winter can also take its toll on carpets and hard floors. Think about getting them cleaned or refinished.
Cleaning windows inside as well as out will brighten rooms and make the most of your garden or any nice views. Book a regular window cleaner if you don’t already have one.
Invest in some extra houseplants. They can help bring the outside in – and allow potential buyers to visualise how lovely your home could be in the summer.

If you’re thinking of selling this spring, call us now. We’d be pleased to offer a valuation and tips on marketing your property.
