When selling Melbourne homes in January you can expect scorching heat during your open inspections. But the following tips will help your home to look and feel cool, fresh and enticing to prospective buyers:
- Turn on your aircon and ceiling fans so buyers feel instantly refreshed when they enter your home.
- If you have a swimming pool make it look inviting with beach towels draped across sun lounges. Open sun umbrellas and pop a tray of glasses and an icy jug of water on the table. If your pool area is bare, invest in a couple of big pots with tall leafy plants for shade.
- Pot plants can also be used to create leafy shade in paved courtyard gardens, on timber decks and on balconies.
- Water all your garden beds, pot plants and lawns prior to open inspections and throughout the sales campaign.
- Mow the lawns and nature strip, and trim the edges for a neat and tidy finish! A freshly-cut green lawn feels instantly refreshing.
- Pressure-clean driveways and paths around the home so they are clean and fresh.
- Place a hammock beneath a shady tree, add a stool with a book and a glass of water to create a relaxed vibe.
- Add a table and chair to a well-shaded garden nook. Adorn it with a vase of fresh flowers, a magazine, and a pretty teacup.
