Stuart's Maidenhead Market Update for January 2023

Hello Everyone 🤗

Hope you've had a great time off over Christmas and New Years and had a good break 🙌

Here is my Maidenhead Market Update for January 2023

📝 Here are my top tips to get ready ✅

1 - Clear out the loft 😩 - If your Christmas decorations aren’t in the loft yet then this will be easier 🎄 Remove any old boxes of things you’ve kept up there that you no longer need. If the warranty has expired so has the need for the packaging it came in ❌

2 - Once your loft is clear ✅ Its time to put away your Christmas decorations + an extra 10-15% of items you either haven’t used in 2022 or take up so much space they will make your home look smaller 🔍

📦 Get down to Homebase and buy a couple of storage boxes (you’ll need them anyway as you’re moving) then put everything up into the space you created in the loft 📦

Haven't got a loft you say? Drop some boxes round your family/friends who do have one 😅

3 - Get all of your lights working 💡, the extra light will help your photographer make your home look better 📸 Viewings past 4.30 will still be in darkness and you don't want your viewers walking round with a torch 🔦 or using there iPhone to look at things 📱

🔥 If you have a fireplace, show that it works in the photos 😎

4 - Don't be tight on heating 🥶 If you walk into a property and it's colder inside than outside, then it's too cold.. Really when you walk in you should be taking a coat off to feel comfortable 🫠

If the property is vacant make sure the boiler comes on when it his 5C over night.

5 - Get a for sale sign up 🪧 its going to help people find your property and if just 1 more person see’s the property because if it then its worked!

Why wouldn’t you want everyone knowing you’re selling? The more people who see it the better 💸

These are the market figures for all of SL6 in December 📊

138 new listings – 26 on boxing day 🤭 - The day no one can speak to an estate agent about the property that's just been listed?

51 sales agreed – only 2 from boxing day onwards due to the market being shut ❌

62 price reductions - Showing people are wanting to move in 2023 ✅
