C&G’s Guide to Getting the Best Sale Price

Thinking about putting your home on the market? As your most important asset, it’s only natural you want the best possible sale price. In this C&G blog, we list some handy tips for achieving a rewarding return on your investment.

Make the necessary upgrades.

Is your home looking its best? Buyers will be impressed with a home that appears well-maintained and well-loved. Depending on your budget, rooms such as kitchens and bathrooms will prove valuable with sleek and modern upgrades. Consider high quality appliances and finishes that add both aesthetic and functionality. Adding more storage where possible will also greatly increase your home’s value.

When upgrading your energy systems, consider sustainable alternatives. Water-saving showerheads and energy-efficient cooktops are only some of the features that will impress buyers conscious about their environmental footprint and utility bills.

Don’t forget your curb appeal either! Your home’s exterior will be the first thing buyers see when they arrive on your street. This first impression will set the tone for the rest of the inspection.

Engage an expert.

Speak to a local real estate agent who understands the area’s demographics and market trends. Not only will they have experience selling similar properties, but can help you determine a competitive asking price and develop a sales campaign that will attract buyers. Depending on your property, your agent can provide advice on the best sales method, whether that is private sale or public auction. They can also refer you to home staging experts who can assist with styling your interiors and make your property stand out.
