The upside here is that there could be huge profits to be made, depending on whether the works needed are structural or not. If most of the improvements that are required are cosmetic upgrades, then it should be something you seriously consider with a focus on gaining a real uplift in the value of your home. If, on the other hand, structural works are required, and you have the available finance, extending the property to create more bedrooms could be an opportunity worth exploring.General Feedback text for Overall score of 34-66%The key question to ask yourself here is: why are you wanting to add the value? If you’re looking to sell, you should absolutely concentrat e on the biggest areas and concerns for potential buyers. If, however, you are looking to add value for your own personal benefit, then a shift in focus to the biggest issues that you currently have with the property would be the way to go. The beauty of t ackling the bigger issues with any property, is that not only will your improvements increase the value, but if you are also hanging onto the property for a number of years, the value increase will compound over the time period, which will give you some fa ntastic growth.General Feedback text for Overall score of 67-100%You’re in a very strong position at the minute, and should really look towards the quick wins in order to improve the value of your property quickly with minimum expense. Assuming all of the ‘big five’ are in good order, then getti ng the decorative elements of the property up to the highest possible standard will make a massive impact on what your house is worth. Obviously, if you do have any glaring challenges that would be an absolute nightmare for a buyer, these should also be re ctified at the same time, especially if you are looking to bring the property to market.General Feedback text for Overall score of 67-100%What a great position to be in! It doesn’t sound like there is too much to do to add any value to the property, however if there are any areas of the house t hat aren’t quite as well finished as the rest of the property, make these your go - to areas. Depending on the configuration of the property, you could always look to extend with additional bedrooms or convert the loft into a master suite, but still retainin g the current bedrooms or as well. This is a sure - fire way to add big value to properties that are already in good to excellent condition.

Just upgrading one of these areas is unlikely to add significant value, if the other parts of your house are letting it down- the minimum investment likely to ensure all of the ‘big 5’ are upgraded would be in the region of £15,000. Topic 1 Detailed Text for 26-50%You may be in a position to upgrade certain areas of the ‘big 5’ in a cost effective way to add good value to your property, our suggestion is to look at the kitchen and bathroom because these can be changed relatively easily and may not need a full refit. If they are already strong areas for you, then getting quotes for the other areas of the ‘big 5’ would be advisable. Topic 1 Detailed Text for 51-75%Well done! You’re not that far away in ensuring that your property is the very best it can be. The most difficult decision to make is which one of the ‘big 5’ to tackle as they are all in relatively good order, as always the kitchen and bathroom would be the high priority areas, but if these are already done to an excellent standard, you should focus on the biggest item that is currently letting you down- but you’re nearly there! Topic 1 Detailed Text for 76-100%Congratulations! You’ve done the hard work in getting all these areas up to a good standard, and they are no doubt already adding significant value to your property. Now it’s time to focus on the other areas of your property where you can add additional value at a low cost to ensure your property is the very best it can be! Topic 2 Detailed Text for 0-25%The main focus here will be improving the things you can control, even terraced cottages with no parking can still look incredibly attractive with the right curb appeal. You should make sure the brick and paintwork are finished to an excellent standard, and even the addition of some floral or decorative elements, can make all the difference. Whilst you can spend a fortune improving your curb appeal, you don’t have to, and just focusing on making it look pleasing to the eye doesn’t have to be expensive at all.

Whilst you can spend a fortune improving your curb appeal, you don’t have to, and just focusing on making it look pleasing to the eye doesn’t have to be expensive at all. Topic 2 Detailed Text for 51-75%There could be a significant opportunity here to really give your property that “wow!” factor. If all the ‘hard features’ like the brickwork and roof are in good condition, then really focus on giving your house an external makeover. Fresh paint, a new driveway, clean woodwork, decorative items & outdoor lighting are just some things you can do to make your property look as pleasing to the eye as possible. Topic 2 Detailed Text for 76-100%Wow! Your curb appeal is fantastic, and no doubt gets many compliments from your friends and family, all you need to do is ask yourself if there are any small improvements that could be made for minimal cost, but don’t go wasting lots of money trying to improve something that is already an excellent selling point for you. Topic 3 Detailed Text for 0-25%This is where significant value can be added- don’t worry that you have ranked low in this area as it is one of the easiest and cost-effective areas to improve. New flooring and doors can be very inexpensive and bring a new lease of life to your property. An investment in the areas described in ‘selling the dream’ will definitely be money well spent and can lead to substantial improvements. Topic 3 Detailed Text for 26-50%Don’t panic! You’re now in a great position to improve this really important area for a very reasonable cost, once the property has been de-cluttered, then even just minor cosmetic changes to your property such as: replacement door handles and new flooring (which doesn’t have to cost the earth!) will already make a large difference in increasing the value of your home. Topic 3 Detailed Text for 51-75%You have some quick wins available here, if there are one or two areas that are letting you down, really focus on those and for quite a small investment you could add some good value to the property in such a short space of time. Don’t underestimate how much of a difference a tidy house can make to its value- so if you are a little cluttered then make this priority number one. Topic 3 Detailed Text for 76-100%Sounds like you have a beautiful home and have worked really hard to get there, if you do want to try and add value then it may be advisable to focus your energy on other areas of the property, as it sounds like you already have in place everything buyers are looking for from a decorative point of view. Topic 4 Detailed Text for 0-25%These are the areas that scare off buyers if not handled correctly, and we would strongly advise rectifying any issues that you may have in these areas. Specialists may be needed to address the concerns, but this would be money well spent to get a diagnosis and a recommendation, as well as what the costs could be to improve the challenges that potential buyers may face.

Topic 4 Detailed Text for 51-75%There may be one or two areas that are causing you some concerns but it doesn’t sound like you’re in a disastrous situation- you may not be able to increase the value massively in this section but keeping on top of small maintenance issues like any potential damp or internal cracking would be beneficial, but do not invest too much time, energy or money into this area unless you have one particular concern that is causing massive issues- such as a damp problem within the property. Topic 4 Detailed Text for 76-100%Any potential buyers will have no nightmares with your property! A big tick in the box here and is not an area we would advise you spend any money on as it looks like you have everything under control. Keep your eyes peeled for any small issues that may crop up and take care of them promptly to minimise the chance of any ongoing issues- keep up the good work! Topic 5 Detailed Text for 0-25%Be careful! Improving the outdoor areas can become an absolute minefield, the key here to improve something that needs a lot of work doing to it is to keep things simple- once all the boundaries are up to standard, invest your time in creating a clean, clear and easily useable space. Minimising on the amount of materials used will keep costs down whilst improving the overall look of the garden. Topic 5 Detailed Text for 26-50%Putting some effort into this area could be very beneficial for you, making small alterations which do not cost that much money can really improve the look and feel of the garden, which will in turn improve the value of your home. Focus on making the area as family friendly as possible in order to make it appeal to a wider range of potential purchasers. This is how to really ramp up the value with minimal effort. Topic 5 Detailed Text for 51-75%It’s probably not worth spending lots and lots of money to improve what already sounds like a good space. If you do want to make some improvements to your outdoor living areas, focus on patio areas, decking and outdoor- those three things can make a dramatic difference to how people perceive your garden and, in turn, will add good value to the property. Topic 5 Detailed Text for 76-100%Amazing! When’s the garden party? Doesn’t sound like there is too much to do here, if you are intent on adding value through improving your garden then it’s going to need to be something pretty special and could be quite costly. Adding an outdoor office, workshop or having a fully professional landscaped garden by a bespoke design company could possibly be the only way to make any additional improvements. Please be aware that all of these things will require fairly heavy investment.
