2. Make use of spare space<\/b><\/h3>\n
If you have any spare space in the home, make sure to use it to its advantage, maybe turning a spare room into a bedroom or office.<\/p>\n
The expert recommended thinking about what people are most likely to use that area of space and dress it to suit.<\/p>\n
This will allow prospective buyers to better visualise what they intend to use the room for which could make them more likely to place an offer.<\/p>\n
3. Make small rooms look bigger<\/b><\/h3>\n
Thomas explained: \u201cAre some of the rooms in your home quite small? You may be worried if so, as small rooms can sometimes be a turn-off for potential buyers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There are actually several things you can do to help make a small room look bigger than it is, and it doesn’t take very long to achieve this.<\/p>\n \u201cHanging large mirrors in the room can help give the illusion of a wider or longer space. Mirrors also reflect light around the room, making it seem brighter and larger.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cYou don’t have to spend a lot of money either. Consider purchasing second-hand mirrors from a charity shop or an online marketplace such as eBay or Facebook Marketplace. Making the rooms in your home light and keeping the rooms tidy can make them look much bigger.\u201d<\/p>\n If there are certain parts of the home which are looking a little worse for wear, it may be worthwhile spending some time completing the touch-ups.<\/p>\n Consider painting over scuffed skirting boards, as well as any marks on the walls. If there are any holes, make sure to sand them down and paint over them.<\/p>\n The expert said Britons should never underestimate the power of decluttering and tidying the space because a clean, tidy room looks \u201cmuch better\u201d, according to the expert.<\/p>\n He added: \u201cTake a look around your home and see if there is anything you can get rid of or donate. Also, invest in some clever and appealing storage solutions so that you can keep all of the clutter at bay.<\/p>\n \u201cPay special attention to high-impact rooms such as the bathroom and the kitchen. These spaces should be very neat, clean and tidy if you\u2019re planning on showing your home to potential buyers.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cAlso, take a look around your home and consider if there is too much furniture in each room. This can make your home feel smaller. If this is the case, you could donate or sell some of your furniture items or put them in storage until you\u2019re ready to move.\u201d<\/p>\n
