Quick and easy home improvement tips to boost the sales value of your home

You don’t have to be an expert to understand that the better presented your home, the more likely it is to sell. In an ideal world, a shiny new kitchen or an additional bathroom would turn the most heads, but, doing your property up a little needn’t cost this kind of time and money if you follow these simple tips and tricks.

1. Something as simple as giving your walls and ceilings a fresh lick of paint shows you care about maintaining a clean and hospitable space.

2. Focus on the little details. Replace that dusty old lampshade; polish any hard surfaces.

3. Make sure you declutter your rooms, even if that means temporarily leaving some of your belongings in storage if you don’t want to part with them altogether.

4. Ensure any outdoor spaces look attractive by popping in a few pretty bedding plants, feeding your lawn or cutting back any overground shrubs.

5. Make sure you’re using your space well, and consider rearranging, reorienting or replacing pieces of furniture to make a room appear as spacious and practical as possible.
