Is there any truth in the rumours that moving out will help sell your home quicker? Practically, most would find this option quite difficult – where would you stay and what would you do with your furniture? Here are some key benefits to moving out which will help your home sell faster – so maybe it’s something worth considering.
Home staging
Perhaps an obvious one, but moving out allows you to stage your home so that it appeals to the widest buyer base possible. From neutral home décor to impersonalised spaces, home staging allows buyers to imagine themselves and their own things in the space.
Inspection and home viewing scheduling
Potential buyers are only able to inspect a home when they have availability – and this will usually put you in some very difficult spots throughout the selling process. This can get more complicated if your property is tenanted – causing some difficulties in scheduling inspections around both the tenants’ and the owners’ work and commitments.
Children and pets
Besides wanting your property to always look its best for inspections, children and pets can add complexity onto your forward planning! Both children and pets can make your life a little bit more complicated when planning for inspections – from unwanted damage such as scratches or marks on furniture through to further scheduling dilemmas.
