PROPERTY SHOP PROPERTY TIPS LIKE MOST OF US, WE GET SET IN OUR WAYS AND, JUST LIKE THAT THE NEW YEAR COMES AND NOT A SINGLE THING HAS CHANGED IN YOUR HOME. WHAT IF YOU COULD CHANGE A FEW THINGS AND GIVE A LITTLE MORE LIFE TO YOUR LIVING SPACE. STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT A POSITIVE LIVING SPACE CAN GREATLY IMPACT HOW YOU UNDERTAKE YOUR DAY TO DAY ACTIVITIES AND THAT A CLEAN ENVIRONMENT CAN HELP YOU ACHIEVE CLARITY OF MIND AND BOOST YOUR PRODUCTIVITY. WE’RE GOING TO SHOW YOU HOW SOME SIMPLE CHANGES CAN IMPROVE THE STATE OF YOUR HOME AND POSSIBLY INCREASE IT’S MARKET VALUE AND GET A REAL RETURN ON YOUR INVESTMENT.

1. The Foyer The Eyes are the windows to the soul, and we use those very eyes to cast impressions. This is why the first impression of your home needs to set the pace of what we see next. The entrance to your home is a key area and ideally the place where you and your family and friends converge upon arrival. Investing in a door, a beautiful tile and some good lighting can truly make this important space the amuse bouche for what will be seen in the rest of the house. The wow factor comes from the entrance.

2. The Garden We are fortunate enough to live in a country where most of us can boast about yard space. An expanse of greenery is something that can mark up your property significantly. Be it landscaped or for small garden use, a big well-pruned garden is a game-changer for both buyers and sellers and is easy on the eyes. Take time this year to tend to your garden especially now that we have received generous rains, the bloom factor is something we can take advantage of.
