Cleaning every room in your Marbella property and tidying the daily clutter. This alone will make your property in Marbella appear bigger and brighter.

Repainting soiled or strongly coloured walls in a neutral shade; white, off-white or beige, and keeping this neutral theme throughout the house, may not be your cup of tea, but it will make the rooms seem bigger and it is more acceptable to a greater number of people.

Check for cracks, leaks, and signs of dampness everywhere in the house. Dampness is the most off-putting of all defects. In villas in Marbella, it is not normally a major structural problem. Most likely the result of broken roof tiles, or a broken pipe in the wall, easily repaired. However, most buyers are from northern Europe where damp patches suggest major defects in a property, costing lots of money to put right. They are unlikely to make an offer on a property with obvious damp problems.

Repair cracks, holes or damage to plaster, paint, and tiles.

Repair broken or cracked windowpanes, moldings and other woodwork.

Check plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and alarm systems for correct functioning.

Repair dripping taps and showerheads.

Buying showy new towels for the bathrooms (to be brought out only when prospective buyers are on the way) is an effective touch.
