Comment: Tips for selling property in Stirling

James McKay, Branch Manager, shares his best tips for selling property in Stirling.

Most buyers form their first impressions of a house within seconds of walking through the door. To help make your property sale successful, we have put together some simple tips for you below: 

• All Stirling areas offer such easy access to the central belt, Glasgow and Edinburgh.  Mention proximity to motorway junctions and the train station to all viewers
• Stirling buyers like smart, easy to maintain properties so ensure your 'kerb appeal' is good by maintaining gardens and exterior.
• Ex local authority houses are popular for first time buyers.  Keep your rooms uncluttered so rooms look big and spacious
• Bridge of Allan – such a pretty village – make sure you point out how convenient your home is for the village centre and Stirling University
• Dunblane sellers have easy access to the A9, good schools and Cromlix House, owned by Andy Murray
• The former mining villages in Clackmannanshire and the Ochil foothills are so handy for hill walking.  Make sure you tell viewers how close you are to such a beautiful part of Scotland
