Prepping your Home For Buyer Viewings

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

If you're planning on selling your home, it's important to make sure it's looking and smelling its best for potential buyers. 🏡

In fact, did you know that having too many scents in your home can actually be overwhelming for buyers? That's why it's important to choose a specific scent that is carefully considered.

While baking cookies or brewing coffee may seem like a great idea to create a cosy atmosphere, it might not be the best choice when your home is being shown. 🍪☕️

Instead, experts suggest using baking soda to diffuse odours, or even using a citrus scent to make your kitchen more inviting. 🍋

But don't worry if citrus isn't your thing! You can always choose a simple, clean scent or even skip adding scent altogether if your home has no unpleasant odours.

The key is to keep it simple and let your home's natural beauty shine through.

Good luck with your home selling journey! 💫

I'm availble for a no obligation chat about your home

What workplace change would you like to see most?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899.

The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.

As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.

Do you feel that we have reached the ideal in working environments yet? What rights are you passionate about relating to employment? Share your thoughts!

1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.

2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.

3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.

4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.

5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.

6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property

Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
