Would you want to buy a house that didn’t look clean and was smelling of dirt and grime? Make sure that you don’t just stick the mess behind closed doors (don’t embarrass yourself for a potential buyer might just want to know what’s behind the door!)

Check, and double check for DIY jobs that you just never managed to complete, of course make sure that you do complete them!

Take extra care in looking around your bathroom and kitchen areas, check that your wallpaper is all stuck down. Perhaps there are some cracked tiles that will need replacing.

Most bathrooms have an area of mould between the grout of the tiles. It looks unsightly and unhygienic, to prevent this scrape out the dirt with a knife and scrub the tiles down with bleach.

Any printed old fashioned style wallpaper should be painted to a neutral paint colour such as cream or beige. Perhaps you should remove any old stained carpets and put down laminate flooring to make the house look more modern and fresh. The smell of fresh paint and newly decorated homes can trick the buyer into thinking the house is younger than it actually dates back to.
