If you’re preparing to sell your home, it’s only natural to want the highest possible valuation. Whether you’re looking to release equity, upgrade to a new property, or simply want the reassurance that your investment has paid off, presenting your home at its best can make a measurable difference. The good news? You don’t need to spend a fortune to boost your home’s value.
At Fisher and Partners, we’ve helped many clients make simple, impactful changes that increase buyer appeal and, in many cases, the sale price. Here are our top quick wins:
1. Deep Clean – Really Deep Clean
Buyers notice details. A spotless home shows care and pride of ownership. Focus on areas often overlooked, grout lines, tile edges, silicone seals, skirting boards. A professional-level clean can make a powerful impression during viewings and valuations.
2. Refresh Dated Décor
Peeling wallpaper, scuffed woodwork, and tired paint can suggest a property needs more work than it does. A fresh coat of neutral paint and simple updates can make your home feel more modern and move-in ready.
3. Declutter to Show Off Space
Less is more when it comes to viewings. By removing excess furniture and personal items, you help buyers focus on the space itself, not your things. A tidy, clutter-free home feels bigger and more inviting.
4. Tidy Up the Garden
An overgrown garden not only looks smaller, it feels like a project. A simple tidy-up—cutting back bushes, mowing the lawn, and weeding, can transform your outdoor space and enhance kerb appeal.
5. Create a Blank Canvas
Buyers want to envision their own lives in your home. By neutralising the décor and minimising distractions, you help them see the property’s true potential.
At Fisher and Partners, we understand that the process of selling a home can feel overwhelming. Our dedicated managing partners are here to guide you every step of the way, offering expert advice on how to present your home for maximum impact.
