Thinking of selling your home this winter?
There are some real advantages to selling your home in the winter months including less competition from other sellers who often choose to wait until the busy spring selling season to list their home, which can result in stronger demand from buyers. Another positive is to showcase the warmth and cosiness of your home, enticing buyers to fall in love with your property. 
The following ideas will help you maximise the appeal of your home to buyers if you are looking to sell your home this winter:
Create curb appeal and a lasting first impression by tidying your front lawn and gardens and introducing plants that are at their best in winter. It also pays to clean windows, gutters and ensure the front entrance to your home is uncluttered and inviting.
Create warmth and comfort by ensuring your property is adequately heated during inspections either by a natural fire or heaters as well as displaying cosy blankets on the lounges and in bedrooms.
During inspections, maximise natural and artificial lighting by opening up blinds and curtains to allow in as much natural light as possible, switch on lamps and lighting in dark rooms and utilise mirrors to maximise the look of space and openness in your home.
Repainting your interiors with lighter, fresher colours can also make rooms feel larger and more spacious.
Showcase how your outdoor entertaining areas can be used year round with the use of outdoor heaters or fires, warm furnishings including cosy outdoor settings and lighting.
Discuss with your agent the best time of day for inspections when your home receives the most amount of sun to maximise natural lighting and warmth.
