Want To Add Value To Your Home? Here’s How To Do That

Do you feel as though your home should be worth more than it is right now?

Maybe you feel as though you are ready to move but want to make sure that you get a good price for the property you have now. Either way, this guide will help you to get the biggest return on any investments you make.

Transform your Garage

One of the main drivers when it comes to your property’s value is how much living space you have. If you can it is wise for you to try and convert your garage as this will help you to market it to bigger families. It may be that you change your garage into a utility room or that you simply turn it into a play area for your kids. Either way, the more you can focus on making your extra space usable, the more likely you’ll be to attract buyers while also rocketing the anticipated value.

Paint the Exterior

This is a small job, but it makes a huge difference. This is especially the case if you do it right before you are ready to list your home on the market. The ROI from carrying out a task like this can be huge if you choose to go down the DIY route. Even if you do get professionals in to do your home for you, you may still find that you can add a huge amount of money.

Central Heating

If you have an older home, then there is a high chance that you do not have central heating. If yours is one of them then you should really think about adding it. It will probably cost you a few thousand at least to get it installed but you can easily make double the money you spent, back. More importantly, buyers will be much more attracted to your home when the time comes for you to sell if you have had it recently installed.

Renovate your Bathroom

Renovating your bathroom is always a good idea if you are looking to sell your property. The two rooms that buyers tend to look at when it comes to a home sale is the bathroom and the kitchen, so make sure that you look at your home objectively and make decisions that are going to be both the fastest and the easiest.

Convert the Loft

Going for a loft conversion is the simplest way for you to add a small fortune to your home. It gets you an extra bedroom and you may even find that the ROI is over 200%. If you do get a loft converted, just make sure that you are going to have easy access to the new space. Building a staircase isn’t easy, but it will certainly make the extra space seem more appealing and it will also make it feel less like an afterthought as well so keep this in mind if you can.
