How much storage space is there?

Your home’s storage solutions could be a hot topic for buyers, especially if your demographic consists of first-time buyers or young families leaving behind the confines of rented accommodation. Having your home professionally staged to showcase its space-saving features is a great way to prepare your home for this question.

How long has the house been on the market for?

Prospective buyers may ask how long your home has been on the market, but this shouldn’t be viewed as an attempt to catch you out. Finding out how long the home has been listed for sale might help the buyer gauge whether they need to act urgently. If the listing is new, this might encourage them to place their offer right away before another buyer comes in.

What’s the area like?

Committing to a home also means committing to new surroundings and a different community. Having an agent who is well-versed in the dynamics, conveniences and amenities of the local area is paramount in attracting the right buyer.

Is the property freehold or leasehold?

The property’s tenure largely dictates its future resale value, so this is an important question for buyers to ask. If your property is freehold, your agent will be able to utilise this as a key selling point. If there is a shorter lease attached to the home, you may consider extending it to attract a buyer and a higher sales price. However, if you don’t plan on extending your short lease, your agent will know which demographic to market to, such as buy-to-let investors.

What is included in the sale?

Certain fixtures and fittings may attract buyers to your home, so it’s important to clearly outline everything that is included in the sale price so that there is no room for confusion. Buyers may also be willing to offer a higher price to have certain fittings included in the sale, which leaves you in a strong position to negotiate.

Have any major renovations been made?

Finding out if any major reconstruction work has taken place allows the buyer to fully understand the property’s condition and value. As a seller, you will need to provide legal documents relating to any major work completed on the home, so it’s important to be prepared for this question from the offset.

Do you have planning permission?

Planning permission is a highly attractive feature for many buyers and applying for planning permission to add an extension or an extensive remodel only costs around £170 depending on your location. This is a small price to pay when you can add thousands to the value of your home if your application is granted.

What is the energy rating of the property?

The energy rating of a property is crucial to assessing the potential long-term costs of maintaining a comfortable living environment. When preparing your home for a sale, your agent will advise you on any areas of improvement which might help bump up your EPC rating.

What Our Customers Say...

The Agency was proactive Entrepreneur Breed 03/02/2025
I needed a house quickly for me and my two children as my old landlord was selling the house at such short notice. Alice from the horbury brand was so understanding and helpful trying to make things as quickly as possible. Always phoning me to give me updates which in past cases I normally have to chase the agent! She has been really quick with replies and honestly being so helpful. I feel super lucky she was dealing with my tenancy for me. The most helpful person and has contacted me since to make sure everything is ok. She definitely deserves recognition for being fantastic at her job! X Rebecca 03/02/2025
Our experience with Richard Kendal (or Karen Marijewko) has been absolutely brilliant. Karen has been a great help with advising us on what needs doing, ensuring smooth communications between ourselves and others and even advocating for ourselves when things weren’t going smoothly. We are incredibly grateful for all help and guidance during this time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others. Sadie 03/02/2025
