Light and especially cheap refreshment
Before letting an apartment for sale, we need to prepare it for the surveys – both agencies and real buyers. Here, we must make sure that the expensive repair does not raise the price of the place. On the contrary, this is a cost that we cannot recover through the deal.
Renovation should only be done if there is a need for it. It comes down to eliminating visible flaws. Most of all these are the leaks to which buyers are particularly sensitive. If there is even a splash of start leakage, it is good for the wall to be plastered and painted again, along with all the walls of the room.
Under no circumstances should floor or window frames be changed because they are extremely expensive repairs and are not worth it. In 90% of cases, buyers immediately change the flooring, even before enjoying the old one. In general, no more than 2000-3000 dollars should be spent on refreshing, mainly focused on painting and replacing old and gabled linoleum, if any. The important thing is that the apartment looks clean, bright and welcoming, even with old and worn furniture.
Appropriate photos
The photo should be of good quality, because room chaos could hardly sell the apartment. The clean, bright and inviting apartment that has become so thanks to the cheap refreshment needs to be shot. It’s good to trust a friend or a familiar photographer who can make good professional photos for free. Photos should show not whole spaces, but fragments of them that look the best. So, the small panel apartment may look like a big royal home without lying in anything. Do not allow the agency to take pictures because the broker flashes with no intention in the pictures – just to have them.
Good pictures pull customers. Often once they liked the apartment on a picture, buyers are prone to big compromises to buy it.
