Home Improvement: Top 10 tips for increasing the value of your home


 
Home Improvement

Purchasing a home is exciting to say the least. As a home owner, and unlike living in rented accommodation, you have the freedom to paint the walls any colour you like and tack as many posters and pictures to the walls as you want. Owning a home can also be a great investment for your future. In order to keep your home in the best condition for both the present and the future, consider these top ten tips for home improvement.

One, keep the area outside your home looking nice. Prune the hedges and keep the grass mowed. Future potential buyers will get a good first impression right when they walk up. Tips number two and three have to do with paint. Paint the exterior and paint the interior of the home every couple of years and, when you are planning to move, right before you put the home up for sale. A fresh coat of paint will give the home a polished look.

Addressing and improving the lighting fixtures is another top tip, Replace old, outdated fixtures with sleek modern ones. Tips five and six are will not only increase the value of your home but also keep you warm in the winters you are living there. Get double-glazed windows fitted and central heating put in.

Number seven on the list is updating the fuse board and ensuring the electrical wiring is up to date. This will be a major selling point when it comes time to put the home on the market. Future buyers will be reassured that little or no work in this area will need to be done once they move in and thus, increase the likelihood of them putting in an offer.

Eight, take steps to improve the closets, cupboards and, if your home has one, a box room. You can make the box room look bigger with polished floorboards or new carpeting. A home with ample storage is attractive to many buyers, especially families with children.

Replacing the light switch and socket covers is tip number nine. These are relatively cheap and all it takes is a couple of screws and they are in. It’s small details such as this that will impress even the nitpicky viewers. And finally, top tip number ten is to make your home as energy-efficient as possible. This is a big selling point these days and you can get great advice on how to do this by speaking to your local utility company. Make your home as “green” as it can be.

Thus, home improvement projects can be simple and achievable by anyone. While you’re living in, and working on, your home, be sure you have proper insurance on the property. Building and contents insurance is recommended and you can get these and cheap home insurance quotes online. You can find more DIY tips online as well. Take your time and enjoy these projects as the amount of effort you put in will show directly in your work!
