Are you looking to sell your house? Are you just trying to increase your property’s value? No matter what you’re doing, there are a few easy ways to increase the kerb appeal of your home. We’ve hand-picked some experts to give you the best tips for increasing your house’s value, the easy way!
Knock-Knock!
Your front door should be a point of interest. If you paint the front door, it can instantly increase the value of your property. You should pick a colour that is vibrant but be sure to match it to the rest of your house’s aesthetic. You may want a bright yellow door, but it may not sit so well surrounded by a red brick house. Rather than the door sticking out like a sore thumb, ensure the colours match on the colour wheel. Complimentary colours are essential when picking out a vibrant front door, making them inviting. While you’re at it, you can also paint the window trims and shutters, keeping the aesthetic going through the house.
Whose House Number Is This Anyway?
If your guests have ever told you that they’ve had trouble finding your home, you should consider getting some new house numbers. They can instantly lift your home’s face and add to your property’s value. The new numbers add to your kerb appeal, keeping your home looking clean, inviting and well put together. If you have nice looking numbers, but there are plants or trees blocking the view, take a brush cutter and clean up the surroundings. The smallest things can increase your property value, and you may not even realise it!
If You Can’t Take The Heat...
Your kitchen is a great place to increase your property’s value. Chasen Nick, a digital marketing strategist at RAMS, offers a few ways to increase your property value with just your kitchen. “The golden rule is that you shouldn’t spend more than 4-6% of your home’s total value on a kitchen renovation. I highly recommend a simple design with clean lines and lighter, natural colours. This will make your kitchen look more spacious and open. Try updating your appliances with good quality brands that have modern finishes. Old appliances can really make a kitchen look older than it is.” You can find out more about increasing your property value by following RAMS on Facebook.
