Happy New Year from all of us at Redrose Estate Agent! As we step into 2025, we know that many homeowners are looking to make fresh starts, which often includes selling or buying a new home.

But don’t worry; we’ve got you covered. Here are 10 powerful tips to get your house looking irresistible in record time. Follow these steps to showcase your home in its best light and leave a lasting impression on potential buyers.
10 Power Tips to Make Your Home Shine for 2025 Viewing
- Eliminate Clutter Like a Pro
Grab a laundry basket and sweep through each room. Collect anything that doesn’t belong: stray paperwork, laundry, toys, dirty dishes—whatever is out of place. Hide the basket in your car to ensure it’s completely out of sight.
- Fresh Towels for Instant Luxury
Swap out the towels in your bathroom for freshly laundered ones. Invest in new, fluffy white towels exclusively for viewings if you can. This small touch exudes luxury and cleanliness.
- Transform Your Master Bedroom
Fresh bedding can make a world of difference. Keep a special set of laundered or new bedding handy for viewings. A quick hack? Layer your everyday duvet cover over the special one and remove it just before the viewing—effortlessly chic!
- Let the Fresh Air In
Open windows in each room for a few minutes to let in some crisp, clean air. Just a fraction will do if it’s cold outside, but nothing beats the feeling of freshness when stepping into a home.
- Create Warmth and Cosiness
Turn on the heating to ensure the house feels warm and inviting. If you have a fireplace, light it for an extra cosy vibe. No time for that? Fill the fireplace with church candles and light them for an enchanting glow. This trick works beautifully year-round.
- Illuminate Every Space
Lighting sets the mood. On a gloomy day, light lamps upstairs and use a mix of overhead and accent lighting downstairs. This creates a warm and welcoming ambiance throughout your home.
- Set the Scene with Music
Play soft, relaxing background music to create a soothing atmosphere. This can help your viewers feel at home and linger longer during their visit—a key factor in building interest.
- Appeal to Their Sense of Smell
Make your home smell as lovely as it looks. Spray a tiny bit of perfume on the beds, tuck a tumble dryer sheet at the bottom of your bins, or bake a vanilla pod in the oven on low heat for a comforting aroma. No vanilla pod? A bowl of water with vanilla essence or lemon juice in the oven works just as well.
- Bring Nature Indoors
Fresh greenery and flowers instantly add life to any room. Even in winter, you can raid your garden for some sprigs of evergreen, holly, or colourful berries. Arrange them in vases for a seasonal, natural touch.
- Look the Part
Finally, don’t forget about yourself! Present yourself as polished and professional as your home. A smart outfit, clean shoes, and a neat appearance will help you exude confidence and set the tone for the viewing.
