Spring is on its way. The sun will be shining, the temperature will be rising and the birds will be singing.

We always feel a little better and more positive at this time of the year. 

The powers to be advise that Spring is the selling time and is the time to get your property sold while the weather is great, gardens look fabulous and people are generally in a very upbeat state of mind.

So what’s the next step?

You need to know what your end goal is.

Why do you want to sell?

Is the home too small, too big, wrong area, changes in relationship?

Where do you want to go?

Closer to the beach, closer to family, follow work, move to the country, move to the city?

How much do you want to spend?

All these questions need to be addressed in detail before you decide to sell.

Be honest with yourself and realistic. Sometimes you just feel like a move and no amount of logic will sway you and that’s fine, as you don’t need to justify the move to anyone but yourself.

You do need to have the answers to all these questions so you’re prepared and panic doesn’t set in when your property is sold.

Now, once we have the end goal sorted it’s time to work on your property.

Make sure the garden is neat and tidy and looks inviting and welcoming.

Internally try to declutter the home from as much excess furniture as possible, remember when styling – less is more. Clear all your benchtops, make sure all clothes, toys and kitchen utensils are put away where they belong prior to any inspection.

Give the bathrooms, toilets and oven a good clean as that is the first place many buyers look to see how the home has been cared for over the years. No one wants to wash in a mouldy shower or cook in a greasy oven!! Make sure beds are made, floors washed and carpets vacuumed. Keep the home as light and airy as possible, open the curtains, raise the blinds, turn on lights in the dull areas of the home – you will be amazed at the difference it makes to the overall feel of the home.

All this extra effort, if handled correctly, should result in a far better price in a shorter time frame than if you had done nothing at all and presented your property in a sub-standard fashion.

So, let the fun begin. If you’re thinking of doing the move, NOW is the time to jump. There is huge demand for properties available for sale in the area and many buyers are looking for their dream home. So the time is right for sellers at the moment.
