Usually in our columns we talk about opportunities about house for sale in the world. But there are few times when we put ourselves on the other side. On the seller’s side. Well, today we are going to address a very important issue. That is to say, the mistakes that could be made in selling a house. If you are going to do that, don’t worry. Today we are going to explain to you what not to do when you put a house up for sale. So, if you’re ready, we can get started!
Let’s start with an environment common to all houses. Often a reason for choice or rejection. The bathroom. The bathroom is in fact the place of relaxation par excellence and, as such, deserves special attention. Often, in our houses, have been created the so-called ”service bathrooms”. Secondary bathrooms that serve more as a storage room than a bathroom. The potential buyer needs to have a clear distribution of spaces and their use. For this reason, we advise you to make a choice. Either redefine the secondary bathroom with appropriate modifications or remove the sanitary ware and make it a closet. In this way you and your buyers will have a clear idea of your home.
And if we have started from the redefinition of spaces, we must also understand how necessary it is to have certain rooms. Let us explain it better. Another common mistake is having too much space in the house. Without any justification for it. And if, years later, it has become more than normal for us, it is not necessarily normal for others. Therefore, we advise you to consider the arrangement of the furniture before putting your house up for sale.
There will be some rooms that are too spacious. (usually this problem concerns the living room and relaxation areas). Evaluate both the need for this size but also the furniture used and the missing furniture. And, only after you have analyzed everything with the eyes of the buyer, you can take the next step.
A quick correction, as you do with photoshop, but in reality, it is the superficial aspect. In detail, it is essential to bring out the original style of your home. Often, over time, the house has lost its identity. Because there is a tendency to insert furniture and furnishing accessories also of different style. Out of pure necessity. This could create a not indifferent problem. Therefore, we recommend a quick remake of your home. Recreating the original style. Only in this way, you can actually give a linear image of your home for sale.
Finally, do not forget to illuminate your home in a way that is consistent with the spaces present. And don’t leave out any room.
This is the only way you will have a good chance of selling, obviously also by placing the ad on our Realigro portal !
And you, are you ready to put your house for sale ?
