Sydney conveyancing tips to attract buyers

As a Sydney home-owner it is only natural to be concerned that your property may either be left on the market for months, or may not sell at all.

Can you do anything about this? Yes, and that’s the great news. As a vendor, you can always make sure that your property has the best chance of a successful sale.

Here are some tips from local Sydney conveyancers on how you can do this.

3 ways to a successful property sale

Invest in your home’s exterior appeal

You know the saying, “first impressions count” and it really does. People will compare your house to your neighbour’s and other properties for sale in the local area immediately before they have even walked into the front door. Don’t allow them to skip your place purely based on first impressions.

Stand at the front of your house and ask the following questions:

Are my lawns clean?
Do my gutters look nice and new?
Does the house look aged and run-down? Does it need a paint?
Are the gardens, fences, trees and plants arranged properly?

A Sydney builder, painter or local landscaper can help you get the external of your home looking nice and appealing to prospective buyers.

Repair, restore and improve

The trick is in the details. The little things can affect your home selling so make sure you pay attention to every detail of your house. Some of the things you can do without spending a fortune include:

Replace all light bulbs so all rooms appear brighter
Fix leaks and damages on walls, drains and roofs
Patch up cracks on walls
Retouch paint on both the inside and outside
Get rid of odours. Use burning candles with scent
Decorate with bright cushions and throws
Maximise space by removing all clutter in and around the home

You may need to enlist services from local professionals like handymen, Sydney electricians, Sydney plumbers, home cleaner and pest control to fix and repair what’s needed.

Choose the right Sydney local businesses to work with

After you decide to sell your Sydney home and transform it, you should choose your real estate agent, conveyancer, mortgage broker and other professions as early as possible in the process. Ensure you engage a business that know the local area well and that you feel completely comfortable with. Ask them questions about their number of years in business and areas of specialty.
