There is no doubt that the last two years have been a seller’s dream, with some houses selling within hours and over the asking price. It is widely reported that this bubble has burst up and down the country. However, Winchester has a proven record of weathering some of the property storms over the years, but to achieve a successful sale in todays market, sellers may want to rethink their selling strategy.

Once upon a time, we were all about hygge – aka the cosy Danish concept that asked us to embrace staying in with flickering candles, cashmere blankets, mugs of tea, and woolly socks.

We’re now embracing another wellbeing trend from Norway, koselig. And, while it’s been dubbed by many as a sort of hygge 2.0, koselig’s emphasis on social interaction means it’s perfect for helping us get through the colder months.

Every buyer has a wish list of what they want from their new home, and understanding buyers is important if you are looking to sell your home in Winchester. As the autumn nights draw in, your mind is no doubt focused on your interior rather than your exterior, but there is one feature that is dominating property listings, thus showing the demand from buyers. Post-pandemic is all about garden offices, and we can completely understand why.

When you are selling your home - buyers really wish to be inspired by what they see. By staging your home, you are creating the canvas buyers need to be able to see its potential as their home. Cluttered and tired spaces just won’t make the cut; buyers expect more, and if you want to achieve the highest possible price, you need to make sure that every room in your home sells. If you’re selling your home, you should ask yourself – Is your bathroom making a splash?

Soaring energy bills are something that none of us can ignore at the moment; the cost of living crisis is expect to worsen this winter, with industry experts warning that the typical bill could exceed £3,600. With this in mind, it’s no wonder that many homeowners in Winchester are looking at ways to make their home greener and more energy efficient.
