Therefore, no matter your plans, home improvements are worth considering for homeowners. At Addison Giles, we are pleased to say we have assisted many homeowners in selling their home, and we understand the importance home improvements make.

The higher the sales price, the more options you have when you make your next move in the market.

Kitchen improvements are worth considering

All rooms are important when you sell your home, but kitchens are vital. This room is likely to be the hub of family life, which is why people want to see an attractive and functional kitchen. A couple of years ago, vendors were recommended to carry out significant improvements in their kitchen. However, this is no longer the case, and if you wish to carry out home improvements in your kitchen before selling your property, you should be more subtle.

You should add contemporary appliances or features to your kitchen. You should look to create as much space as possible. If you achieve these outcomes, you’ll find your kitchen should appeal to prospective buyers, allowing them to imagine themselves living in your home, which is an important point to reach in the sales process.

Upgrade the energy efficiency of your home

The more energy-efficient your home is, the more attractive it will be to buyers. People want to live in an energy-efficient home because it allows them to feel good about themselves. A growing number of people make significant decisions based on the environmental impact of their actions. It stands to reason these buyers would prefer an energy-efficient home over a non-energy efficient home.

Also, energy-efficient homes save money in the long term. When you lose less energy, your energy bills fall. Given the rising costs of energy, this is an outcome most people are happy to see. Therefore, switching to energy-efficient lightbulbs and adding or improving loft and cavity insulation should make your home more energy-efficient, allowing you to enjoy the benefits associated with an energy-efficient home.

Improve the garden area

If you are fortunate enough to own a garden area, you should make the most of it. Kerb appeal is crucial in appealing to prospective buyers. If you add a decking area, creating a seating area that enhances the utility of your home in the summer, you’ll add value to your property. If you create stylish flower and plant areas, you’ll make people appreciate your home more, and this can increase the value of your home.

If you’re looking to sell your home, and you want a free valuation, contact Addison Giles, and we’ll be more than happy to help. We’re local property market specialists, and we look forward to assisting you in selling your home.
