Whether you’re a homeowner thinking of selling, or you’ve just moved in and found the place is a little worse for wear, your mind is probably racing right now over the best ways to add value.
Yes, there are quick ways to do this too! But you need to pick your projects right, and if you’re on a strict time frame, make sure they won’t take too long. It’s why we’ve put together these three value-adding projects; they’re quick, efficient, and shouldn’t be too difficult.
And when we say quick, we mean any project that’ll boost value and won’t take more than a week to complete. With most home renovations taking upwards of a month, that’s the kind of project timeline we like!
Plant Out Front
Landscaping adds lots of value to properties, residential or commercial. But when it comes to your home, we need to do something quick! And that’s where planting in the front yard comes into its own.
As far as dream garden projects go, planting for a quick bit of curb appeal out the front of your property should be top of the list! Go for pre-grown plants that have good height to them already, and aim for symmetry across the front of your house.
Clear it Out
A clear home is a spacious home, and a spacious home has a lot of value to it! If you’re selling, this will show would-be buyers the potential in your property. And if you’ve just bought the home for yourself, this is the best starting point for putting your own stamp on the place.
Not only will you be able to see how much space you’ve got to work with, but you’ll let go of the stuff you’ve been lugging around for years without really needing. So, get yourself a mini skip hire, sort your possessions into piles of keep, donate, and throw, and have a proper sort out. This process will take you maybe a couple of days, and you won’t need to spend all that time ferrying junk back and forth either.
Once you’re done, you’re likely to have twice the amount of space you did have, and that could lead to all kinds of decor projects and mini renovations that add some proper character to your home.
Add Some Paint Highlights
Adding highlights to your home’s structural features will help them stand out and stop looking so shabby! If your home is older, whether you’ve just moved into it or not, you’re likely to notice how scuffed and marked the doorframe, window frames, and skirting boards are.
Get yourself some gloss, give yourself an afternoon or two, and go round your home repainting these parts. Make sure you warn people not to touch, but if you buy fast drying paint, you’ll have the project fully completed in a few hours.
