FAQs

How do I prepare my home for sale in Kilkenny?

The best way to prepare to sell your home is to put yourself in the mind of a buyer. This can be difficult and an objective opinion and professional advice are essential to avoid costly improvements that may not impact the final selling price.

When it is difficult to know how to start, we can provide a consultation to identify what priorities should be addressed, what minor edits can take place and to allow you to focus on moving forward.

Is home staging worth it for Irish properties?

Home staging is a process whereby a designer will source furniture and accessories for hire, in order to improve the presentation of your property for market. It can improve final selling prices but it can also be costly.

As an alternative, we offer a 60-90 minute in-person consultation to identify where best to put your efforts while preparing to sell so your property is presented to it’s best without delays or significant investment.

What is a property edit consultation?

The Property Edit is a customised 60-90 minute consultation where you will receive practical advice and professional guidance on preparing your home for selling. It includes a review of first impressions, kerb appeal, space, styling, decluttering and minor improvements.

You will receive a written report that highlights the primary improvements along with detailed steps for maximising the home’s selling potential and presentation.

How can I make my house look better for photos without buying more?

The most difficult aspect of preparing your home for sale is stepping back and seeing change. Usually a number of small changes make the biggest impact in improving how a property photographs and is received by buyers and the market. However, without experience, it can quickly become a never-ending list of work that delays getting listed.

The Property Edit, our bespoke consultation, advises on strategic and practical improvements to your property with minimal time and effort.
