NOVAK NEWS: SELL SMART - LOW-COST WAYS TO MAXIMISE YOUR SALE PRICE 💰

In this episode of Real Talk Weekly, Thomas Sims and Jonathan Vescio from Novak Properties dive into low-cost strategies to maximise your property sale price. They outline five key steps: 1) Decluttering and depersonalising to make the home feel more spacious and allow buyers to envision themselves living there; 2) Deep cleaning, particularly overlooked details like windows and bathrooms, which significantly affect first impressions; 3) Minor repairs and maintenance to prevent doubt or concerns about bigger issues; 4) Curb appeal, including garden maintenance and clean entryways to create a welcoming first impression; and 5) Affordable styling, such as adding soft furnishings or using virtual furniture, especially for vacant homes. They also emphasize smell and lighting to enhance atmosphere.As a bonus tip, they stress the critical importance of professional photography and floor plans in attracting buyers. With most buyers browsing online first, eye-catching visuals are essential to generate interest and inspection bookings. They caution against DIY photography and highlight that even a great property can be overlooked if poorly presented online. The team reinforces that many of these enhancements are either free or inexpensive, yet can deliver tens of thousands more in the final sale price. They invite sellers to reach out for trades or advice and close by offering their support—day or night—as committed local agents.
