Key Additions That Can Add Value to Your Home Fast

When you are planning to sell your home, you want to get the best value for it.

While you may think that it is already perfect as it is, there are a few things that can usually be done to add a few more dollars to its price.

Some of these are expensive, and some are more affordable, so you will need to consider how much work and time you have to invest in your home when prepping to sell it.

So, how can you add value? Read on to find out.

Fireplaces

One thing that can easily add value to any home is having a fireplace fitted.

These simple additions are not as hard to install as people think, although you should always have a fireplace professionally installed to ensure it complies with the rules and regulations of your state.

They are desirable because they brighten up a room, look beautiful, and, if you can burn wood on them, more people want them. Perhaps it is nostalgia or the association with the upper classes. Yet, whatever it is, this is an easy way to add a few extra dollars to your home’s resale value, so look online for Victorian fireplaces for sale.

Hardwood Flooring

Next is hardwood flooring.

This is usually popular when it is placed in the hallway or the kitchen. Plus, as there are so many different kinds of hardwood to choose from, you can easily find one that will fit in with your home’s decor.

However, remember, when people walk into a home to view it, they usually want to see lighter, brighter spaces, so aim for lighter woods like beech and pine.

New Kitchen

Most people hear the phrase kitchen makeover and groan. After all, there is so much work to do when having a kitchen pulled out and refitted.

So, it may be best to focus on some key areas; the floor, the countertops, and the lighting. The appliances like the tumble dryer and the dishwasher are not going to be left behind when you sell the property, so it doesn’t matter if they are a bit out of date.

Try to add as much light to the kitchen as you can, with countertop lights, for example. A wooden or tiled floor will always be a good feature in a kitchen. Then, the focus falls on the countertops. Wooden countertops and stone ones are always desirable, so if your budget can stretch to them, opt to have these professionally fitted.

Energy-Efficient Features

Yes, energy-efficient, or being green, is the way to go when it comes to selling a home.

This can take the form of having solar panels fitted, smart home features for the heating, and digital thermometers. It can also involve having triple-ply windows fitted, which will keep your home warm in the winter, and cooler in the summer.

A Garden Makeover

It is a part of the home that a lot of people want to see but is often overlooked, the garden.

If you are lucky enough to have a front and a back garden, there is a lot you can do to add value to your property. Having a small-water feature installed will always be helpful in a backyard, as well as having raised beds. Then, you can divide the space based on plants, roses on the left bed and wildflowers on the right. The garden doesn’t have to be ornate, but it does have to look tidy and have a sense of order.
