“GET ORGANISED AND DECLUTTER” – Frank Cooper​ MNAEA Associate Director – Aldershot

Prepare for viewings! Keep rooms tidy, stay on top of the vacuuming and clear dishes from the draining board. This will demonstrate that your home is an attractive, functional home. Leaving your stuff lying around may create the impression that there is not enough storage!
