Would Your Home Pass the 30-Second Test?

In this digital age, we’re bombarded with never-ending posts, shares and bits of information to process.

Would Your Home Pass the 30-Second Test?
This overload of info overload means people, including home buyers, are making decisions quicker than ever.
When we accompany people on viewings, we often see them making up their mind about a property in less than 30 seconds. 
So, would your home pass the 30-second Test? Let’s begin:

  1. If your home is being put on the market, have you had a big declutter ahead of when your estate agent comes to take the all-important photos?
  2. Are all your home’s exterior items in good working order? Think about the condition of your garden baskets, paving stones and even the doorbell.
  3. If you have a lawn, has it been mowed recently? You want people to look at it and think, ‘that looks nice’ rather than, ‘that looks like even more work for us to do’. 
  4. With the autumnal wind and rain in mind, have you cleaned your front door in the last four weeks? And is your welcome mat, well, welcoming?

If you’ve answered no to all of the above questions and your home is going on the market (or you’re considering it), act now.
Because you’ll be putting potential buyers off and failing the 30-second Test.
If you answered yes to all the questions, pat yourself on the back. You’re in pole position to pass the first impressions test.

Meet Abigail

  Hello, my name is Abigail, and I am the Grey in Grey & Co. I started working here in 2002 as a Junior Negotiator and have worked my way up the ranks since then. I took over running the company in 2014 and have been enjoying the roller coaster that is leadership ever since.   During my 20 plus years at Grey & Co I have dealt with the sale of over £100,000,000 worth of property and overseen the management of assets worth £250,000,000 for clients around the world.   I also had the pleasure of working with my father, the founder of Grey & Co, for 15 years before he sadly passed away and from him, I learnt the work hard ethic and our values today are still the ones that he founded the company on all those years ago.   Be Remarkable, Be Passionate, Be Humble and Be Better.   As a community centric boutique family agency, you couldn’t find a better partner to take with you on your property journey.
