Honeysuckle is home to professionals, looking for the convenience of city living. To meet market demand (and maximise your sale price), it’s vital to cater to this market. Define a study/office space, declutter your property and create storage solutions to meet the needs of buyers. Ensure you complete all projects so busy buyers are not put off by the idea of a fixer-upper. Make it easy for professionals to choose your property in the Honeysuckle market.
Life by a working harbour is never dull! Make the most of your unique position in Honeysuckle by highlighting the benefits of harbour life. Your property may not feature water views, but you are still close to the harbour and close to the action. Create inviting outdoor spaces and draw the buyers eye to your windows, to take in the view or catch that salty afternoon breeze. Remind buyers of the unique lifestyle they will enjoy in your Honeysuckle property.
Inner-city buyers are looking for properties that provide flexible spaces, where they can relax, entertain, work and play. Appeal to these buyers by highlighting the flexibility of your home and how spaces can be enjoyed in multiple ways. Stage your living area with a desk under the window, a recliner to the side and barstools under the kitchen bench to demonstrate the room’s versatility as a place of work, entertaining and relaxation.
