What can increase the value of your home?


If you have decided that it is time to sell your house or flat, there are several factors that could increase the value of your property.

A good marketing strategy together with the advice of good real estate consultants, such as Engel & Völkers, are the basis for success, although there are certain factors that could help you to generate an increase in the value of a property.


Layout

An optimised layout, and using all resources to get the most space in the existing space is one of the keys to success.


Lighting

Although it is impossible to control the amount of light a property receives, sellers may have some scope to make alterations to optimise the reach of sunlight into the property.


Internal factors

Renovation of kitchen cupboards, bathroom fittings and taps are other factors that can significantly increase the speed and price of the sale, as well as bringing greater levels of efficiency and sustainability to the new owners.


Equipment

If there is furniture or basic appliances, this could be a plus for the seller to get a better price; although some buyers will prefer to choose these types of elements themselves.


Location

Undoubtedly one of the most important external factors is location, which can lead to two identical properties having totally different selling prices. 


Green areas and public services

Public transport connections or quick access to certain types of roads can determine the buyer's decision, as well as the proximity to public parks, gardens, schools or urban, educational or health centres.
