Home Renovations That Most Increase Your Property's Value

Given that the price of housing is on the rise in Australia, it’s a wise decision to maintain your home, even if you don’t plan on selling it in the near future. 

And with 2018 just around the corner, there isn’t a more perfect time than right now to think about what kind of renovations will be most effective when it comes to improving your lifestyle and increasing the value of your property.

If you’re struggling to make a decision on what’s best for your home, the following are some easy and affordable home renovations to choose from;

Create Space

Getting rid of unnecessary clutter is the first step you should take when trying to make your home more appealing. 

Do not leave a stone unturned when cleaning each room in your home. Yes; that means making sure all your cupboards are emptied of rubbish, under your bed is cleared and that your closet is emptied of all unnecessary items. Once you’ve done all of that, you’d be surprised by how much space you can create.
If you’re still feeling like you’re tight on space, think about investing in first floor additions or second floor additions for your Sydney home and you’ll get to enjoy much more space and a higher ROI should you decide to sell. 

Increase Natural Light

When you have cleared out your clutter, it’s time to introduce as much natural light as you can into your living area to make it brighter, airier and a more pleasant space to spend time in. 

Top tips for introducing more natural light include;

1.      Paint your walls a nice shade of off-white instead of brilliant white and dark colours as it will reflect the natural light instead of absorbing it.

2.      Choose fixtures with glossy finishes and utilise the power of mirrors, glass and other reflective surfaces where possible. 

3.      If carpet is your flooring of choice, always go with light-coloured carpets instead of darker. 

4.      Stone, wooden or ceramic floors with a polished finish are the best choices of flooring.

Front Door Entrance

Having a front door and entrance way that wows everyone that enters through them will massively increase the value of your home. 

To get the best bang for your buck, we suggest investing in a door that’s made from a top quality material (steel, fibreglass or wood) and putting great effort into designing a luxurious hallway that will give your guest’s a wow impression when entering your home. 

And that completes our list of home renovations that will most increase the value of your home. 

From big projects such as investing in first floor additions in Sydney to de-cluttering your entire home, there’s definitely something on this list to keep you busy in 2018!
