Home improvement ideas to increase the value of your apartment

Ellington Properties Dubai

The goal of any real estate investment is to increase value. You want it to be worth more than when you bought it. There are inexpensive ways to add value and more costly and far-reaching reforms that can be accomplished.

Some improvements can make your home more pleasing to the eye. Others can increase the usefulness of your home, make it larger, or make it more comfortable for your growing family.

Whether you want to build capital or sell at the best price, many residential renovation projects are worth considering. Some of the real estate experts we know have stated that the following projects can deliver maximum performance.

Low-cost suggestions

There are simple things any homeowner can do to make their property more attractive. While these simple suggestions may not add tens of thousands of dollars to the value of your property, without it, you may not be able to realize the full potential value of your property. These solutions can be performed without resorting to outside help. Although they are inexpensive, they can make a big difference in the appearance of your property.

  • Cleaning: Ensure your property is clean; you will make an immediate profit on the value of your property, which includes the exterior and interior. Waste, dirt, and odors are not attractive features.
  • Paint: You will be surprised at the difference a new coat of paint can make. It can revive a tired space. Neutral colors are universally attractive.
  • Add an outdoor attraction: Some strategically placed floors, a new mailbox, lights, or exterior shutters can make your property more welcoming. Higher costs and potentially higher profitability projects include further upgrades, new vehicle entrances, and the addition of a deck.
  • Replace the accessories: Replace the door handle, the light switch cover, the cabinet handle, or even an appliance. It’s a simple way to breathe new life into space.
  • Organize the property: Assigning a function to each room can add value because many buyers have no imagination. The correct position, size, and quantity of furniture are also crucial.

Moderate advice at high costs

There are improvements you can make to a property that can cost from medium to large, depending on the size of the renovation and the materials chosen. These updates usually have the potential to add meaningful value to your property:

  • Add architectural details: You can add personality to any dull room by adding a chair or frame.
  • Modify or add windows or doors: It is the most precious asset. Not only does it enhance the beauty of the house, but it can also reduce noise inside the house, which helps to reduce heating and cooling bills and increase natural light inside the home. French doors leading to the courtyard add elegance, open space and allow more light into the property. Skylights can also help illuminate areas that do not have windows or natural light. Correct placement of windows and doors can also help to enhance a beautiful view of your property or to minimize undesirable things like a brick wall or a direct view of a neighbor’s house.
  • Change the flooring: Upgrading the carpet or adding wood or tiles adds value to a property.
  • Reduce noise: People want to feel that their home is an oasis. There are several ways to reduce noise, such as adding insulation, installing double-glazed windows and doors, installing rugs and carpeting to minimize passageways, and planting to absorb more sound.
  • Update a kitchen or bathroom: This includes changing part of the room, but not a complete bowel renewal. You can change the floor or replace the ceilings. In the bathroom, it is possible to replace the toilet, sink, or bathtub. In a kitchen, this may include the purchase of new appliances.
  • Renew a room: This may include the addition of new cabinets, new ceilings, new floors, new light fixtures, new appliances, modern sinks, modern faucets, new furniture handles, new tub, new shower, new bathroom, or even a change in room design.
  • Update the padding: There are many flooring options, and the best type generally depends on the climate and the area in which your property is located. This is an upgrade that will improve the aesthetic appearance of your property and may help you reduce your bills.
  • Create a more functional plan: For example, you can break the wall between the kitchen and the living room. You could rearrange a kitchen to create a more useful space. You could add a bathroom to the master bedroom to create a suite. You can also change the position of two rooms, such as a desk and a dining room, to create better flow at home. You can also take up space from one room to add it to another room, for example, by taking up space in a large living room to create a kitchen.
  • Add more square meters: It doesn’t just mean adding a supplement to the property. It can also mean finishing an unfinished or underground attic to add more space to the property. It can also mean transforming an attached garage into additional space.

Bottom Line

Although you want to improve your property and increase your value, you must be careful not to overdo it. You don’t want to spend a lot of money on a renovation where you won’t see a return on investment; for example, positioning sophisticated Viking fixtures in a middle-class neighborhood home would be a significant improvement.

Before renewing, do some research in your area to find out how much the property will be assessed after the renovation.
