Sales Progressor
charlotte.hardy@johngerman.co.uk
Top tip for buyer or seller? Buyer: Try to go in with an open mind, imagine a blank canvas and visualise your belongings by looking past the possessions already in the property. Think about how you can make it your own home. Seller: Don’t be disheartened if after a viewing people don’t want to proceed. The right buyer will come along! Try to keep the house as minimalistic as possible to help people see the room and space better.
What would be your dream home? Somewhere around the south coast with a sea view. One day maybe!

Top tip for buyer or seller? In real life, a property looks a lot different and you could be missing out on your dream home if you discount it from just seeing the pictures alone. Be opened minded, if it’s in your price range, in an area you want and has the space you need, book a viewing!
What would be your dream home? Somewhere on the coast with a sea view.
