Innovative ways to dress your home to sell or rent fast

If you have a property that you need to sell or want to rent out, the fastest way to do it is to make it look as attractive as possible. After all, you want any potential buyer or tenant to walk in and be able to imagine them living there. In fact, what you want is for them to have a desire to move in.

The best way to achieve this is to stage your home or property. There are several ways to do it, but many of them work out too expensive, or time consuming, to be a viable option for ordinary people. Below we have put together simple, relatively inexpensive and fast ways for you to make your property look irresistible to potential buyers and tenants.

A tidy up

The first step is always to de-clutter. This is time-consuming, but it is essential. A cluttered, untidy space never looks good. Remember what you may think as homely touches are likely to be seen by others as unattractive, which can stop them from seeing the potential of your home. It also makes it harder for them to be able to imagine living there.

Bear in mind that once you have successfully sold your home or rented your room you are going to have to empty it anyway. Tidying up and de-cluttering is actually a great way to get ahead with your packing. Look at it this way and it will not seem like a daunting task.

A quick lick of paint

Once you have de-cluttered you need to clean everything thoroughly. Anything that does not come up with a quick wipe should be given a fresh lick of paint or thrown away. In most cases, that just means touching up knocks and dings rather than having to paint the entire door, wall or skirting boards. You can use a damp sponge to make sure that the new paint blends in better with the older paint.

If your furniture has seen better days, it is probably best to dump it and lease some from somewhere like www.emblemfurniture.co.uk. It really is the best way to show your home off in a good light.

In all likelihood, you are not going to be taking these tatty old pieces of furniture with you anyway, so by dumping them now you are just getting another job out of the way. If this is not an option, consider re-covering things like sofas and chairs to make them look better.

Buy some rugs
