Some tips to help...
Trim the lawns and tidy the garden
. This will be a prospective tenants first impression of
the your property, make it good!
Shampoo the carpets.
You may be surprised at how much more ‘life’ they have after a
good cleaning, the brighter the better for renting.
A once over the walls.
Clean walls are one of the most effective ways to lift a property’s
presentation.
Check the guttering.
Make sure there are no leaves hanging over the edge, no peeling
paint or water stains.
Clean out the garage/shed.
They are the places where unwanted goods can
accumulate over the years. Good storage space is always attractive.
Open the windows.
The brighter the rooms the better, so always leave blinds and
curtains open.
Kitchen and laundry.
Special attention needs to be paid to these areas, clean the oven,
polish the sink and clean the cupboards.
