There are a number of things that will instantly add value to your property when comparing the market price to similar sized houses in your area:
- extensions, such as a conservatory or loft conversion
- upgraded bathrooms
- additional bathrooms (especially en-suites)
- central heating
- upgraded kitchens
- extended kitchens
- landscaped gardens
- a garage (or addition of a double garage)
Alternatively, obtaining planning permission to carry out some of the above works can also increase value considerably. For example, planning permission for an extension can add up to 15% to your property's value. This means that by spending approximately £2,000 on architect's drawings could give you an additional £25,000 on the sale of your house.
