There are some elements of relocation that remain exceptionally challenging, while the overall process of managing these can cause considerable stress. It is therefore imperative that you strive to minimise this stress wherever possible, primarily by taking sensible decisions that simplify the process while keeping costs low.

Selling your property is arguably the most important of these, as without this it is almost impossible to set the necessary chain of events in motion. It is also important to sell your home as quickly as possible, as the level of value in the current market combined with a lack of housing supply offers a unique opportunity to execute a quick and profitable sale.

How to sell your home Quickly prior to Relocating

These factors considered, it is far better to sell your home quickly rather than having to oversee this process from your new home. Consider the following steps towards achieving this: –

De-clutter your Interior and Exterior Space

Before you begin to consider the fundamental design or price point of your home, you will need to de-clutter the space and create a neutral proposition for potential buyers. If you do not have the time to sort through your possessions and throw out that are unwanted, however, you should look to invest in flexible, short-term storage solutions that can serve as a temporary home for your items. This proved to be a God-send when I wanted to sell my house fast, especially I had the option of using mobile storage units that were available on a rolling contract.

Optimise the Space at your Disposal

With the clutter cleared from your home, the next step is to establish a viable interior layout that optimises the floor and wall space available. This not only establishes a neutral living space, but it also enables potential buyers to imagine themselves residing in the property. Another way of creating the illusion of space is to maximise each room’s exposure to natural sunlight, while the use of natural wood surfaces also adds light and depth to a particular space.

Be Reasonable when Putting a Price on your Home

While we are currently residing in a sellers’ market, this does not mean that you can become greedy when pricing your newly modified home. After all, a lack of housing supply does not mean that potential buyers will pay substantially over the odds for your property, especially as the current generation is more aware than ever of concepts such as value. You must also be prepared to compromise on the price point in order to guarantee a quick sale, as you should still be able to secure a viable profit before you relocate.
