5 Ways to Add Instant Value To a Property

I’m always on the hunt for relevant info and I loved this - one of the best articles I’ve seen on this topic for a while. Here are a few paragraphs as a taster...

If you have a listing that needs a boost, here are five renovation projects home owners can undertake to add instant value.

1. Paint - Never underestimate the difference a fresh coat of paint can make. This is one of the most cost effective ways to not only add value to the property, but to make it look new as well. Our tip? When choosing a new colour palette, go for neutral, cool colours to make spaces appear larger. Choosing colours that will not date quickly also means the buyer will get more life from their purchase.

2. Kitchen upgrade - Although this can be quite expensive, the value a brand new kitchen will add to a property is incomparable. The kitchen is the make or break point for many potential buyers. If your client is looking to sell for a high price point, ensure the kitchen is up to scratch. We recommend having a look at similar properties in the area to get an idea of what standard is expected. Do not spend more than you have to on unnecessary features. Remember, you can’t go wrong with adding extra storage, quality finishes and appliances, as well as a fresh, modern style.

3. Bathroom upgrade - The other major make or break point for buyers is the bathroom. If the bathroom is old and outdated, it’s definitely time to consider an upgrade. Again, go for clean, modern tiles that aren’t likely to date any time soon. If the space is small, larger tiles can help it look bigger and more expensive than it really is.
