Discover how our expertise and attention to detail can make all the difference in achieving a swift, lucrative sale. Let’s turn your property into a buyer’s dream.

Key Home Staging Strategies for Maximum Impact

•

Declutter Rooms:

Clearing out excess items and optimizing storage solutions creates a spacious, inviting environment that allows potential buyers to envision their own lifestyle in the space.

•

De-personalise

By removing personal photos, artwork, and distractions, we create a neutral backdrop that enables buyers to project their own vision onto the property, establishing a stronger emotional connection.

Professional Photography to Showcase Your Home

After meticulously staging and transforming your space, we understand the importance of presenting it in the most compelling way possible. That’s why we arrange a professional photoshoot with our expert photographer. They’re adept at capturing every nuance and feature that makes your property unique.

These premium images form the cornerstone of our marketing efforts. They’re prominently featured on our website, seamlessly integrated into our social media outreach, and strategically placed on leading platforms such as Rightmove and Zoopla. This multi-channel approach ensures that your home receives the attention it deserves from a wide and diverse audience of potential buyers. With our professional photography, we aim to create a visual narrative that truly showcases the value and charm of your property.

Staging Solutions for Brighter, Inviting Spaces

•

Maximise Light and Space:

We enhance the room’s spaciousness and natural light with mirrors, open blinds, and a neutral color palette.

•

Style-Specific Accessories

We elevate the ambiance with carefully chosen accessories like throw rugs, cushions, and books in complementary shades, while creating a warm, inviting atmosphere with elements like oil diffusers and candles.

Holly

Senior Fundraising Officer

Every home should be a safe home!

In a world where safety and security should be a given, the reality is starkly different for many in Kent & Medway.

Countless adults, young people and children face the harsh reality of abuse within their homes. Imagine a child’s day starting, not with excitement for learning, but with a feeling of overwhelming anxiety about their family’s safety.

Domestic abuse casts a long shadow over the lives of its victims: it disrupts their sense of safety, hinders their emotional well-being, and scars their futures. At Oasis, they believe that every individual deserves a safe and nurturing environment in which to thrive. They understand the intricate web of challenges survivors face, and their commitment is to help them rebuild their lives free from abuse.

They want to deliver the best possible services to their clients and their communities and will work hard to deliver everything they have set out to do, building stronger foundations so that they can be here – now and in the future – for the people who need them more than ever.

Holly has said “We are a charity that is rooted in the county. It was 30 years ago that a small group came together to transform a Margate hotel into a sanctuary for domestic abuse survivors. Now we offer support, accommodation and expertise to nearly 2,000 individuals a year in Kent and Medway. We are deeply grateful for the continued support from our community. It is thanks to the enthusiasm and dedication of companies like Guildcrest Estates, who have committed to fundraising for the work of Oasis, that we can help more adults and children in our community build safe, positive futures free from harm.”

Franz

Landscape Gardener

Three years ago, he quit finance in London for the Kent countryside where he was able finally to dive into his lifelong passion for gardens and landscaping; a desk for a field was a good trade. 

He spent the first year planning, designing and planting-up his own garden before coming across Guildcrest Homes where, for the past few years he has worked in various roles but predominantly in offering planting advice and getting stuck into the maintenance of their new home gardens.  

He considers his role as important, as a garden is often the first thing prospective buyers will see on a viewing, so the pressure is always on to present a well-kept, planned space that provides potential homeowners an enjoyable mix of plants that will encourage other forms of nature.
