If you’re looking to sell your home, there are many ways to increase your chances of getting the right price with some home improvements, whether it’s a lick of paint, or just a good tidy and declutter.
However, while many popular home improvements can help add value to your home, one area that should not be neglected is the kerb appeal of your home. Ensuring you provide an excellent first impression to potential buyers will help your chances of getting the right price considerably.
We have a few tips on how to instantly improve your home’s kerb appeal.
1. Revamp the front door
As the entrance to your home, the front door makes a statement about your property before anyone has even stepped through. It determines what visitors will think about your home, and how welcoming it will be.
Improving the front door is a relatively simple fix. A quick refinishing can help rejuvenate weather-beaten wood doors, and metal polish on the door furniture and fixtures can remove rust and dirty spots to help make an old door look new. A fresh coat of paint can allow you to add colour and character to your home.
2. Transform your home’s exterior
Touching up the exterior walls, whether they’re brick, stone, or covered in cladding, can help bring your home back to life. Completely re-cladding, repointing, or re-rendering will have the biggest impact but comes with a large price tag.
3. Maintain windows and paintwork
Ensuring that your windows are clean, and the paintwork on window frames is cleaned up and retouched where necessary is a cheap but very effective way to improve the look of your home. Clean windows will help your home look brighter and more inviting.
