•Presentation is key. De clutter to maximise the sense of space.

•Choosing the right agent is crucial. Ensure you appoint a hands-on agents.

•Don’t appoint an agency that will just hand you and your property over to the sales cadet.

•Ask for recent, comparable sales and base your reserve on these. You have an emotional attachment to your home, this can distort your expectations.

•Trust your agent and let them do the all the hard work. You should just enjoy the process.
