When you decide to sell your family home, the general advice is to de-personalise it. But this is wishy-washy at best, so we have compiled a step-by-step guide to get your property ready for sale.

You’ve prepped and primped your home, and it’s been photographed looking its very best. Now you’re ready for the next step in the selling process – viewings. This can be a make-or-break moment, where buyers fall in love or run a mile. So how can sellers ensure viewings run smoothly and that nothing they do or say deters a potential buyer?

This week we are back again with the monthly £/sq.ft statistics.

You can always tell when someone is really interested in buying your home by the number of questions they ask. There are the usual suspects like: • Where are the best schools? • What are the neighbours like? • Is it easy to park? • And how much is council tax? But it also pays to prepare for some unexpected questions.
