In short: Most buyers decide whether to view from the photos, so presentation starts before the listing goes live. Declutter, clean thoroughly, fix small defects such as dripping taps and broken handles, and freshen paint in neutral colours. Improve kerb appeal with a tidy front garden and clean front door. Use professional photography and a floorplan. For viewings, open curtains, put lights on, ventilate and keep pets out of the way. Fraser Bond advises every seller on presentation.
