Property Maintenance & Trades

When preparing your home for sale or settlement, first impressions matter. Buyers are drawn to properties that require minimal effort to move into, so a home that appears worn out or in need of repair can hurt both its value and the speed of sale. At Home Moving Planners, our property maintenance services ensure your Melbourne home is market-ready and looking its best.

The Importance of Property Maintenance

Whether preparing your home for sale, managing a deceased estate, or helping a loved one move to aged care, property maintenance can significantly impact your home’s appeal and selling price. Small repairs like fixing cracks, peeling paint, or refreshing your garden may seem minor, but they can increase your property’s value.

A well-maintained home shows buyers that the property has been cared for, potentially justifying a higher offer. Likewise, a tidy garden creates a positive first impression and can offer one of the best returns on investment.
