According to recent surveys, one of the best ways of adding value to your home is a kitchen extension and renovation, as buyers are often as interested in space as they are in location.Although a kitchen extension can be a costly project, it could well prove a good investment when it comes to your propertys value. Consider investing in good quality appliances, sink, tap and units to present your kitchen space at its best.If you are currently trying to sell your property, it is also important to pay attention to its external appearance. If it is simply a case of repairing a broken or damaged window or smartening up the front drive, it is well worth making the effort. If exterior walls need resurfacing then, obviously, it will be a lot more expensive, but may still be worth it.Other factors that add value to a property are a conservatory, eco-friendly renovations, such as solar panels, and those all-important finishing touches. If you are planning on decorating, keep the colour scheme neutral so that potential buyers can visualize themselves in your home.
