Some people don’t like the cold and the snow and the rain, while some people believe it is a magical time of year.

Whatever your thoughts, it is now getting closer to the time when you will need to winterproof your Newton-le-Willows home and garden.

It generally starts with a thorough declutter, which makes the property seem more inviting and helps hugely with the moving process. Where necessary, you might also decide to redecorate. Depersonalising your home and repainting in a neutral palette can also help viewers envisage themselves in your home.

These decisions shouldn’t be rushed. But, for buyers, putting an offer in on a property is an exciting time. The quicker you respond, the easier it is for them to maintain their excitement about buying your home. Plus, if you accept the offer quickly, it can make buyers more motivated to get things moving at their end to progress the sale.

If you’re considering what to do with an offer a buyer has made on your home, here’s our advice on how long you have to respond and how to decide whether to accept.

If you want to sell a property during a fixed-term tenancy, you don’t have to wait until the agreement ends before going to market.
