Taylor Wimpey makes moving possible in Portsmouth
If you’re desperately trying to sell your home so you can make the move into your dream property, then Taylor Wimpey Southern Counties has a fantastic scheme on offer at its Scholars Walk development in Portsmouth.
The house builders’ Part Exchange scheme has been designed to help those who would love to move but can’t because they still have a house to sell and is available on selected homes, including plot 143 the Evesham, which is the development’s ‘Home of the Week’.
Sarah Pasco, regional sales director for Taylor Wimpey Southern Counties explains more: “Part exchange provides a fantastic solution to your home sale problems, so if you think you’re destined to be stuck in your current home forever then don’t despair! Come along to Scholars Walk, take a look at the stunning homes on offer and speak to our experienced sales team to find out how we can help get you moving. If you discover we can help then the whole valuation process can take place within days – meaning you could be selling your home to us and moving into a new one sooner than you think!”
Under the scheme, Taylor Wimpey buys your current home at an agreed price, saving you the stress and expense of finding the right buyer. With no need to instruct estate agents, you’ll also be saving money on fees, leaving you with spare cash to spend on the more exciting things like furnishing your new home. And with no chain to maintain, your move can be arranged so you’re in the property in next to no time.
To make sure you get the best possible price for your home; and to improve its ‘saleability’ Taylor Wimpey has some top tips for you:
1. First Impressions Count - make sure that your property has the wow factor from the outset. The front of your house and hall need to be welcoming and inviting so give your door a lick of paint and tidy up your front garden.
2. De-clutter - potential buyers need to imagine themselves living in the property so de-clutter, put large pieces of furniture in storage to create more space or move it around. Clear the kitchen surfaces and replace tired tea towels. Put fresh white towels in your bathroom and hide away your products.
3. Smarten Up – treat you home to a fresh coat of neutral paint. Replace lino or tiling if needed and ensure threadbare carpets or worn sofas are covered with a rug and throw.
4. Spring Clean - if you’d rather not redecorate then get a professional cleaner in. Ensure the carpets, sofas, oven and windows are spotless. Pay attention to the bathroom and kitchen which need to be hygienic. Make sure you don’t over-stuff your wardrobes. People do look in them to see how much storage space there is!
5. The Right Price – don’t be unrealistic as to what your house is worth. The part exchange scheme is a success due to realistic valuations from efficient agents that Taylor Wimpey has a great relationship with.
There is currently a collection of two, three and four bedroom homes available at Scholars Walk priced from just £139,995. Plot 143, the Evesham, is priced at £204,995.
