With years of experience and an opportunity to ask buyers directly what they want to see in homes that are being offered for sale, why would we possibly ignore the advice that their expertise offers us? Welcome to our feature agent profile of the week with Francesca Nicol of Biggin & Scott. There are plenty of decisions to be made before placing your property on the market. Questions such as which agency and agent, type of sales campaign, marketing strategies and whether to hold open for inspections or private showing only, all need consideration.
Once these issues are addressed, the most common concern our clients express at the beginning of any project relates to whether they will increase the selling price of their home by engaging a property stylist to prepare and present the property for sale. To be honest, despite our honest belief in the benefits property preparation and styling offers, this can be a tough question to answer, because in many cases there simply isn't the data available to draw an irrefutable, direct conclusion. That is until now. The more listed homes I have seen over the years, the more I have come to realise that there are a few preparations that really should be tackled due to their big impact on the presentation of a property, but for some reason, are frequently overlooked

It was difficult to accept that after two separate sales campaigns, through two separate agencies over the proceeding two years, why this family style property in a premium location, walking distance to the best schools, was not being snapped up.
My client felt that the feedback provided by each of the previous agents were merely excuses as to why a sale had not been achieved or why a low offer should be considered. 30 Second Secret to Success - How to Sell Your Property with Michael Wilson of Hayden Real Estate24/5/2016 Everyone selling a property has similar questions, but the most common question of all, the one we all want the answer to is, how can I sell my property quickly and ensure that I get top dollar.
