4. Garden glory
One easy move which ramps up the visual appeal and saleability of a property is tackling the garden. Try to make sure the property appears low maintenance as this appeals to buyers.
But simple moves like mowing the lawns, weeding the garden, clearing up landscaping clutter, pruning trees, sweeping up leaves and clearing pathways make a huge difference.

WILL THE NEW 'CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL only deal with physiological ailments or include psychological ailments? AND is there a difference between child and adult mental health issues.
All specialised areas - so how is one able to access the most appropriate intervention in a timely manner? Is our health system recognising how widespread these issues are? Is it appropriate for a child to be treated alongside adults?
This is an ideal time to hear from those experiencing difficulties.
GO FOR IT. Your voices need to be heard too.

3. Paint rejuvenation
Revitalising a property with a good paintjob is a sure way to boost its attractiveness while modernising it and adding value. Choose light, neutral colours and don’t forget to paint ceilings and cupboards, too.
Also, it pays to paint the front doorway and door if required as this will improve a buyer’s first impression. Re-staining decks is also a fairly simple move which can make a big difference to the overall appeal of a property.
