My Property Selling Expert - Unmodernised Properties

Condition: Note the current state of the house, including any structural issues, outdated systems (plumbing, electrical wiring etc), and cosmetic concerns.
Market Value: Get a professional appraisal to understand its value in the current market, considering its unmodernised state.

As-Is: Selling the house in its current condition can appeal to investors or cash buyers looking for a project.
Minor Improvements: Small, cost-effective updates (like fresh paint, decluttering, and landscaping) can make the house more attractive without significant investment.

Set a competitive price reflecting the condition. Overpricing can deter buyers, while under-pricing might undervalue the potential.

Traditional Estate Agent: A local agent with experience in selling fixer-uppers can be invaluable.
Auction: This method can attract investors and competitive bidding might drive up the price, but setting the Guide Price will leave a digital footprint that can negatively impact the value if the property fails to sell.
Cash Buyers: Investors and companies that buy homes for cash can expedite the sale but offer lower prices in return for convenience and certainty.

Highlight Potential: Emphasise the property’s potential, location benefits, and any unique features.
Target Audience: Aim your marketing at investors, flippers, and buyers interested in renovation projects.
Professional Photos and Staging: Even in an unmodernised house, clean and well-taken photos can enhance interest.

Be transparent about the property’s condition. Disclose any known issues to avoid legal problems down the line.

Be ready to negotiate with buyers who might seek discounts for the work required. Understand your bottom line and be willing to compromise if necessary.

Ensure all legal documents are in order. This includes the title, property disclosures, and any necessary approvals and permissions for previous work done on the house.

Curb Appeal: Simple fixes like mowing the lawn, trimming bushes, and cleaning the exterior can enhance first impressions.
Inspection Reports: Providing a pre-inspection report can reassure buyers about the property’s condition.

Selling an unmodernised house requires a strategic approach to highlight its potential and reach the right buyers. By pricing appropriately, marketing effectively, and preparing for negotiations, you can achieve a successful sale.
