Simple Ways to Add Value to Your Home

Home › Help and Advice › Simple Ways to Add Value to Your Home
SurreyWhile every home owner can benefit from adding value to their property, many people have been led to believe that adding value requires a lot of time and/or money. This isn’t the case and there are a number of simple ways to add value to your home. Following these steps will allow you improve the value of your property without breaking the bank or exhausting yourself.

Improve the exterior of your property
You should know that first impressions are vital when selling your home. You are unlikely to convince a potential buyer to decide to purchase your home from the outside, but an untidy garden may put them off your property. Take the time weed the garden, have the fence fixed and general ensure that your garden and exterior of your home looks as great as possible.

Ensure your roof is in great condition
Ensuring your roof is in good condition offers short and long-term benefits when looking to add value to your home. If there is any visible damage or broken elements to your roof, your home will look unattractive. Tidying your gutters, repairing drains and tiles is a smart and simple step to quickly improving the value of your home. However, strengthening, reinforcing or improving the quality of your roof will help to retain heat, which can save money on your energy bills in the long term.

You may also want to consider installing loft insulation into your roof, helping you to reduce the loss of energy, allowing you to keep your home warmer for less money.

Choose the lighter option
Natural light is very important in making rooms feel spacious and welcoming. Cleaning or upgrading your windows to ensure as much natural light floods into your home is a great way to improve the appearance and feel of your property. You will also find that switching to more energy efficient lights helps you to save money while creating a better image and identity for your property.

Decorate
While many people think that you need to convert a loft or add an extension to add value to your home through home improvements, there are simpler ways to improve the value of your property. Simple repair jobs or carrying out painting and decorating jobs can make your home feel cosier and more attractive. If you are looking to sell, choosing neutral colours will make it easier to appeal to potential buyers as opposed to opting for daring or striking colours.

Start from the floor up
The quality and condition of your floor is crucial in creating a positive impression and making sure that there is value in your property. Some property owners who are keen to sell their home will have new carpets or wooden flooring installed, but you don’t need to go that far. Improvements in home carpet cleaning technology means that every home owner can improve the condition of their floor without spending too much money or time.

These steps can be taken care of in a weekend and you don’t need to spend too much money to achieve your aims. For an added bonus, why not improve the security of your property with a number of additional locks or strengthened security measures. A secure home is a happy home, but it is also a home that holds an improved level of value.
