Hello World! Welcome Friends! Refurbishment is the best way to beautify your home so that you can raise your asking price. But with so many different areas to renovate, it can be hard to decide which home improvements are worth investing.
Generally, if you clean and spruce up a house, it looks better. However, there may be other projects that you want to add, namely a garage, a garden and a conservatory. These extra features will certainly increase your renovation costs but they will also create a noticeable difference in the appearance of your home.
How to Improve Your Home and Add Value to Your House Before Selling
You still need to remember that when the real estate market is depressed, not every new project will contribute a net gain to the value of your property. Making the wrong home redevelopment projects can end up working against you and actually lower your profit margin from the sale.
Since you don’t want your renovation work to backfire on you, fix the following valuable facilities in your house to attract good offers from buyers.
Replacing Old Doors
The front door is the gateway to your home. It’s the first thing buyers see as pass through when entering, before they can examine the interior of the house. If the doors look dull and unattractive, some customers may be put off. Consider adding a new door finish, a new doorknob, and if possible — replace wooden doors with steel doors.
Redesign the Kitchen
The kitchen is one key portion of the house that says a lot about its price. So, do not make any compromises here. Some statistical studies have shown that about 65% of Home Flippers renovate the kitchens before reselling their homes.
Since the kitchen puts food on the table, many buyers tend to focus on kitchen facilities. Even if you lack resources to build a new kitchen from scratch, you can make some little improvements to the existing amenities such as the cabinets, and the sink.
Refurbishing the kitchen will definitely pay off in the long run.
Renovate the Bathroom
Is your bathroom not in the best state? Then give it a thorough clean, re-grout the floor, and change the taps which are not in good condition. The bathroom of a house for sale must be fresh and hygienic to attract the best offers.
In 2019, about 29% of sold houses had brand-new bathrooms installed. This tells you that a fancy bathroom can help you to sell your house fast. HGTV estimates that homeowners can expect to recover about 80-130% of their expenditure on bathroom additions.
Adding More Rooms
From the living room to the master bedroom, all necessary enhancements should be made. Adding an extra square footage to your rooms can be expensive, but it’s worth the price.
Lack the space for new rooms? Consider remodeling your garage or attic into bedrooms. More rooms will attract more buyers.
Here are more renovation ideas that can help you to transform an old house into an attractive home.
- Add a swimming pool
- Installing energy-efficient windows and electrical systems
