Property can be an excellent investment, so it’s generally a good idea to make sure you make the most of it, especially before you sell. As a building company, we frequently get called onto jobs in Berkhamsted to help raise a property’s value before it’s sold.
Many of our building services, such as loft conversions, house extensions, garage conversions, and property refurbishments, can help raise the value of a building, but some are more effective than others.
If you want to raise your property’s value, here are our top suggestions. Alternatively, you can call our builders directly on 07402 888369 and discuss your requirements with them.
Perhaps one of the most effective ways to add value is with a house extension. Unlike loft conversions or garage conversions, an extension physically adds space to the home, significantly increasing its value. It’s worth noting, however, that not all extensions add the same value.
A wraparound extension, for instance, can dramatically increase your valuation, due to the high amount of space it creates in your home. By expanding both the side and rear of your property, it improves the living areas of your home.
Alternatively, a double-storey extension can be another effective method of raising your house’s value. That’s because adding a new bedroom and bathroom to your home can increase its value by up to 23%.
If you’re considering an extension, think of how the rooms you create will influence the price of your home. Our building company can always advise which choices see the most success in Berkhamsted and the surrounding areas.
Another way you can help adjust the price of your home is through property refurbishments. As homes age, their décor can look dated and worn out. Unsurprisingly, this can reduce how much people will spend on your home. Investing in house refurbishments, however, is a perfect way to bring that price back up to its maximum value. Whether it’s something simple like giving your home a fresh coat of paint to make it seem brighter or more extensive structural refurbishments, a home is worth more if it looks well cared for.
Of course, we provide more than house extensions and property refurbishments. Our wide range of services also includes various loft conversions and garage conversions. If you’re interested, here are a few other services we provide:
From dormer conversion to garage refit or one of our previously mentioned solutions, no matter how you decide to improve the value of your Berkhamsted home, our building company is ready to help you make the most of your property.
