The Channel 4 series Selling Houses follows estate agent Andrew Winter as he transforms apparently impossible-to-sell houses and finds a buyer for them within three weeks of the makeover. This practical illustrated guide accompanies the series and gives readers the know-how and inside knowledge to help them turn their house into a buyer's dream. It takes them through the entire process from the basic principles of knowing the buyer, knowing the competition and making the best of their homes, through detailed room-by-room advice including projects for a range of budgets. Drawing on case studies from both series and around the country, it includes everything a vendor needs to get that stubborn For Sale sign down and the Sold sign up.
