Selling Tips  
One of the hardest things about selling your property is to make yourself take an objective overview of your home. It is easy to overlook the cracked window pane, sticking door or leaky gutter, until of course you start viewing other property and develop X-ray vision!

As part of your preparation for selling take a good honest look at your home particularly in the following areas and you will greatly improve your chances of selling, even before you have called us in!

Here are five ways to achieve the best price for your property:

1.Exterior
Peeling paintwork and unsightly dustbins are definite deterrents. Make sure your home is appealing and tidy for curbside inspections.
4.Animals
Some people are frightened by over-exuberant cats and dogs. Keep them out of the way until they can be properly introduced. Be aware that animal smells may hang around longer than the buyers!
2.Tidy rooms
Almost impossible to achieve but worthwhile. Ensure the impression is of space and light. Cluttered rooms stay in the memory.
5.Honesty
Sales can fall through at the first obstacle due to truth economy. If asked a direct question about the property, noise, traffic etc., be honest as buyers will find out and will not thank you for a fib.
3.No rush
Some people take 2 minutes to make their minds up, others need more time. Let the house do the talking, the buyer the thinking and  Nationwide Residential & Commercial the negotiating.
