Offer accepted - what extra DIY/cleaning should I do?

[JJLSS]

We have received an offer on our London property after a decent time on the market (9 months on and off). When we first put the property on, we did a really good clean and touched up/fixed things that were a bit off (eg: wonky door etc). During the time our property has been on the market, things have got a bit scruffy again (eg: children's marks on the walls, bit of mould in the bathroom, small crack on the wall) - what should I be doing before passing to the new owners? I'll obviously clean the house but would you expect a deep clean and what about the 'wear and tear'? It will have been visible when the new owners looked around so should I just leave as is? I don't want to make it look like I'm covering things up but on the other hand, I don't want to replace the sealant in the bathroom for example, if they are likely to be replacing the bathroom? If I raised it before the sale goes through might the new owners think I'm highlighting faults and then use that to negotiate on the agreed price?

I'd go with the logic that it's sold as seen. Unless something breaks since then I'd patch it up / repair. We didn't do anything once we sold bar clean up and defrost the freezer which we were leaving before we left

Is this the first time you’ve sold somewhere? All of that stuff sounds minor, don’t give it a second thought.

Make sure everything is out and tidy and tbh if you've had extra scuffs get one of those sample rollers from b&q literally a pound each and go over as much as you can, make sure you have lied about nothing that will show up either like structural guttering etc

We just moved and we filled and painted any holes on the walls. We also just tidied up.. however the bath broke a week before leaving and we did replace that as we felt bad! Even though they were nightmare buyers 😂

We are moving shortly and frankly, our house is looking very “lived in”, but I’ve taken the view that everything was visible during the viewings, the new owners are likely to want to redecorate etc and the house was priced accordingly.
The house we are moving into also needs work so am under no illusion and plan to replace kitchen etc so I’ll be quite happy if it’s clean.

Decorate it to the standard you would expect when you walk into your new house.

To me that means everything cleaned , like worktops, sink, toilet, woodwork that’s dirty, scuffs off walls. Anything that’s become dangerous since the sale repaired, so black mould washed off surfaces/walls with the appropriate cleaning product, cracked sink replaced, broken door handle replaced etc.

I’d buy a touch up tester pot of paint in the same colour as the wall and touch up any marks. I wouldn’t paint a whole wall or anything though.

I’d also plan ahead and put out the bins to be emptied the week prior to sale and keep rubbish from after that until moving day and deliver it to the tip myself by car if it’s just a couple of days, so they have an empty bin.

I'd do a cursory clean, so a spray and wipe over surfaces and inside cupboards, hoover, bleach in the toilet etc. I wouldn't clean windows etc.

The buyer will no doubt want to clean everything properly themselves.

If you have some small pots of touch up paint, maybe leave those.
