8 Af fordable Tips ToIncreaseThe Va lue of Your Home

So, you are going to purchase your dream home and decided to sell the current one. Well, you have to do some preparations first in order to sell your

home at a valuable price. Usually, you have to because that dream house with a spacious garden does not really fit within your budget. ‘Save a little more’, is usually the message you get when it turns

out that you are too short of money to pay for your own dream home with a driveway. Getting

your investment to pay off is also quite feasible if you take a few smart measures into account. We

list the best ideas for you!

1. A lick of paint

It may sound too good to be true, but to boost the value (and look) of your home, a fresh coat of paint on the walls can work wonders. Of course, you don’t have to limit yourself to the interior walls.Just like with a first date, everything stands or falls on the first impression. So, it’s not a foolish idea to give the facades a makeover as well. Have your facade cleaned by a professional firm or paint the whole lot from head to toe in a fresh color.

That old-fashioned kitchen from the 80s with oak doors that were hidden away between four dark walls? Have a look to see if the one wall that connects to your living room is not a supporting wall. If not: throw it out and the chance that you will let the lady of the house dream of living in it.A completely new kitchen is, of course, not a bargain. No budget? No worries. Again, you can count on the paintbrush to make everything look spring-fresh again. Wow effect assured and budget-wise not a man overboard.

3. Bathroom Update

After the kitchen, there is another room that people turn off enormously and which has an unmistakable effect on the price: the bathroom. What could be more daunting when you visit a house than a completely decrepit bathroom? That yellowish shower curtain doesn’t make you feel like taking a quiet bath with some candles around it, right?Also, break out those old, cracked tiles together. For a few hundred dollars, you can give your bathroom a new look: a clean shower screen, new furniture and shiny tiles. The wellness content soars, just like the value of your home.

That attic where you never set foot, couldn’t it be converted into an extra room? No investment pays off more than creating extra space. The figures speak for themselves: an extra bedroom quickly makes a home 4% more expensive. You see: many little ones make one big.

4. Lost spaces

The easiest solution is also the nicest: put on those overalls, get a rake and get to work until your garden looks like the one in the books. That is to say no weeds on the terrace; the grass is nicely mowed, freshly scented flowers and some hedges that guarantee sufficient privacy.The trick is to make potential buyers dream – they should be able to see themselves sitting on that terrace, in the sun, with a glass of rosé before a meal.Another green solution to increase your home value is to invest in solar panels. We can already hear you arguing: the cost price is not out of the question, and the subsidies are being scaled back. All true, but it is and remains a good investment.Certainly, because the price of solar panels has taken a serious dip in recent years, and the efficiency has increased significantly.

6. Solar Panels

The advantage of solar panels is that you earn back the purchase price fairly quickly. Those future buyers know that they will be able to reduce their electricity costs enormously.

7. The Little Ones

Sometimes it’s in the small details. How do you give a modern touch to your home without spending too much? Very simple: by taking care of the little details. Door handles, handles or switches from decades ago? Replacing those things takes neither time nor effort – at most, some skill with a screwdriver.

Last but not least: light! Some of the best things don’t cost a lot, and light is one of them. I can’t believe what you can achieve by controlling the light. Don’t panic; you don’t have to break out all the walls and put large windows everywhere. The right lighting can immediately create a wonderfully spacious feeling. A few cleverly designed lamps immediately give the potential buyers the feeling that they are already at home. Smart, easy and inexpensive.

8. Let There be Light

You see: you absolutely do not need to make any heavy investments to boost the added value of your home in the short term. Play it smart, and before you know it, your house is sold, which brings you one step closer to your own dream home.
