Geelong Real Estate: Whitford Property News – 11th September 2025

Geelong Property News:

First impressions count. When preparing your home for sale, a few small changes can make a big impact. Decluttering, fresh paint, and some simple styling can help highlight your property’s best features. Street appeal is also crucial - tidy gardens, clean windows, and a welcoming entrance set the tone before buyers even step inside.

Here are 5 quick tips to get your home market ready:

  • Declutter & depersonalise – create a sense of space and allow buyers to imagine themselves living there.
  • Freshen up paintwork – neutral tones help brighten rooms and appeal to more buyers.
  • Focus on kerb appeal – mow the lawn, trim hedges, and add a few potted plants to welcome buyers.
  • Let in the light – open blinds and curtains to make spaces feel bigger and more inviting.
  • Finish minor repairs – small details like fixing leaky taps or replacing tired handles can lift the whole home.

Buyers are drawn to homes that feel light, fresh, and well cared for. A little effort now can mean stronger competition and a better result on auction day or in a private sale.

If you’re considering selling, we’d love to help guide you through the process, including a complimentary visit from our in-house stylist to showcase your home at its best. Contact our team today for an obligation-free chat about your home’s potential and how to achieve the best outcome.
