Preparation Guide for Selling

At Uruguay Sotheby’s Realty, we recommend these steps to prepare your property and maximize its appeal:

1. Do a deep cleaning:

A clean and tidy property is more attractive to buyers. This includes not only general cleaning but also less visible areas such as windows, carpets, or even details like the condition of the tiles.

2. Depersonalize the space:

For buyers to imagine themselves living in your property, it is ideal for the space to be as neutral as possible. Store family photos, personal collections, and very specific decorative items that may distract or not appeal to all buyers.

3. Make minor repairs:

Check for squeaky doors, dripping faucets, or peeling paint. These details may seem minor, but they can influence the overall perception of the property. A good first impression increases the chances of success.

4. Consider light renovation or home staging:

In many cases, a small investment can make a big difference. Changing the paint, improving the lighting, or adding some modern furniture can transform the space and enhance its visual appeal.

5. Highlight the property's strengths:

If your property has views, gardens, or distinctive features, be sure to enhance them. For example, large windows should be cleared to let in light and showcase the landscape.

6. Professional photography:

Image is key in property sales. A professional photo shoot, or even a virtual tour, can capture the attention of potential buyers in a way that normal photos cannot. Our company offers professional photography and video to showcase your property to the fullest.

Preparing your property for sale can not only help you sell it faster but also achieve a better price. Our team at Uruguay Sotheby’s can guide you through every step to ensure a flawless presentation.
