Upsizing, downsizing, relocating or simply finding the home of your dreams are plenty of reasons why Aussies put their homes on the market.
But the one thing that unites them all is the desire to get top dollar for their property – and that’s where Harrisons can help.
It is essential to have your home stand out from the crowd when it does come time to sell.
For those ever-important open homes, it is ideal to stage your rooms to add to the style but also to give the impression of comfort. Soft furnishings, ornaments and fresh flowers have an impact, but more lasting home improvements will reap big rewards through clever renovations.
Flooring can be critical to these renovations – and in terms of a return on your investment, it is an inexpensive way to make a real impact on would-be buyers.
Plenty of real estate agents recommend this solution to their clients before putting their homes on the market to add quick value and make the properties more attractive to would-be buyers – and talking to Harrisons Flooring is a great start.
One homeowner had the daunting task of putting her late mother’s house on the market. Pauline knew the decor was outdated, particularly the carpet and vinyl, and that this could impact the potential sale value of the property.
“Joss McNamara from Harcourts recommended that I contact Christina and Murray Gardner, the local owners of Harrisons Flooring, and I am so pleased we did.
The family was pointed in our direction by the local Harcourts real estate office, and we were able to help choose and install new carpet and vinyl as well as coordinate with the family’s painters and decorators to ensure the whole process was fast and stress-free.
“Christina came to our family home with her van full of carpet and vinyl samples. I had no idea what colours to go for. Still, she helped me put together two different colour palettes, coordinating carpets and vinyl with the paint options we had chosen from Resene, to see how it all worked together. She made it so easy, taking photos for me so that we, as a widespread family, could choose which colour palette we wanted to go with. Everything was priced there and then".
"Come auction day, we were so pleased with the outcome, and I am sure that having new vinyl and carpet, which cost us less than $5,200 for the house lot, definitely added to the saleability of our mother’s home. I need not have worried as Christina and Murray worked with our painters to coordinate every step of the way, and the installation ran smoothly".
