Singapore Properties Marketing Tips

Thinking of selling your house?

Not sure how to market it?

Whether to get an agent or not?

Before all else, here’s some easy ways to get a higher price for your property, faster

Clear the clutter – nobody likes to view a house full of clutter.

The 1st impression is simply not good, doesn’t give a “good-feeling” and you may be surprised how many buyers actually go by their “feeling” when it comes to buying properties.

Once you dispose of all the junk at home, maybe it might look so nice (clean) that you have 2nd thoughts about selling!

Paint paint paint – painting the house not only gives it a sense of freshness, all the dirt and marks on the walls get cleared away fast and furious … make sure you paint in a light / neutral colour.

Allow lots of sunlight in the house – bright, cheery houses sell higher than dark damp properties.

Store things away - After all the throwing and painting, you will definitely STILL find lots of items STILL lying around.

Make sure you keep these away. Make the house spick and span, look prim and proper, like Chinese New Year – when your relatives are coming to visit.

Its all about appearance. Go to ikea or your nearby diy shop to buy storage boxes and keep those things. There is a big difference “seeing things scattered all over the place” vs “seeing boxes stacked up properly”. Don’t believe? Go let your dog play with a dozen rolls of new toilet paper.

Add some colors – Too too too pale is also no good, doesn’t feel cosy, homely.

Try to create a comfortable environment to entice your buyers, make them come in and go “wow, this place is just perfect for me!” – try adding plants, flowers in clean-cut, clear glass vases (remember to change water often) … these have been known to draw attention of viewers and make them feel relaxed.

The final touch – ooohhh, sooo soft furnishings – ever wondered why showflats always look so good?

Of course, they could be using lots of “branded” furnishings and feature walls and home electronics … but it is really the soft touches that make the place look oh-so-wonderful.

Items such as curtains, cushion covers, pillow covers all add up to give the buyers the impression that their house “would be able” to look this good, if they bought it.

Now, if you have prepared your house nicely, even the valuer that comes along would be impressed and give it a good value, of course, offering him some nice home-baked cookies should prove quite beneficial too =)

Need a professional property agent to sell your house?
