Tips for Selling Real Estate in Hamilton
Highlight period features and heritage architecture
In addition to its rich cultural atmosphere, Hamilton is also famous for its heritage architecture. So, highlight period and heritage features in your home to appeal to more buyers. Repaint ceiling roses and ornate cornices, highlight original fireplaces, see if there’s traditional hardwood floors underneath your existing flooring and make a feature of dado boards and picture rails. Hamilton is a heritage suburb, so make the most of period features in your home.
Decorate respectfully in keeping with the age of the house
If you’re looking to sell your Hamilton home, make the most of the market by decorating in a style that respects the age of your property. Your ultra modern furniture might suit you but, it may not appeal to the buyers you wish to attract. If in doubt, safely place your existing belongings in storage and stage your home with more traditional pieces, to accentuate the heritage features of your Hamilton property.
Find and define a study/office space for professionals
Hamilton is highly sought-after by professionals looking to work from home. To meet market demand (and maximise the price for your home), it’s vital to find and define a study/office place. It’s not necessary to create a whole new room for this purpose. Clearly marking out a nook or hallway space, and staging it as a study/office for sale, should be enough to show potential buyers that your home can meet their professional needs.
