Top Ways to Add Value to Your Home

Renovating is not only a great way to revive and refresh your home, if you do it right it can also help maximise the value of your property. Using our years of experience and industry knowledge we’ve shared some tips that you may wish to keep in mind.

Some effective ways you can add value to your home include…

  • The addition of a downstairs toilet
  • Extension – The bigger the better – think about the square footage you’re creating.
  • Open plan living – No room for an extension? Make the most of the current space by opening it up.
  • Utility room space – A utility room allows you to hide away appliances and unsightly apparatus, allowing your kitchen to be a sociable relaxing space.
  • Restore or enhance the buildings character – by restoring or replacing traditional features your house instantly becomes more desirable to potential buyers.
  • Storage space – Utilise all the dead space in your house. With some clever ideas, the smallest space can be used for useful storage.
  • Concentrate on the kitchen – if your budget is tight- make the kitchen your focus point.

THINGS TO AVOID

  • Be aware of the ceiling price in your area – People will only pay what a property is worth.
  • Managing your project, yourself – To keep a project on schedule, within the budget it is essential to have a good project manager.
