BUCO: New Home New Collection
New year, new you, new home?
If you’re thinking of selling your house in 2025, read on. We chatted with the knowledgeable team at Buco to understand what makes a property more appealing (and sell faster).
“Home renovation before selling your house is important because it can significantly impact the property’s appeal, value, and marketability,” says Buco. “Increasing the value of your house during renovations involves strategic improvements that appeal to potential buyers and enhance the overall functionality and aesthetics of the property. Remember to strike a balance between the cost of renovations and the potential increase in the home’s value.”
Here, they share the top home renovation ideas potential sellers should consider.
- Kitchen Remodel:
The kitchen is often considered the heart of the home. Consider updating countertops, cabinets, and appliances to give it a modern and inviting look. - Bathroom Upgrades:
Renovate bathrooms with new fixtures, vanities, fresh paint, and updated lighting. A clean and well-maintained bathroom can be a significant selling point. - Curb Appeal Enhancements:
First impressions matter. Improve your home’s curb appeal by repainting the front door, adding fresh landscaping, installing outdoor lighting, and ensuring the exterior is well-maintained. - Open Floor Plan:
If feasible, consider creating an open-plan space to create a more spacious feel, which is a desirable feature for many homebuyers. - Energy-Efficient Improvements:
Install energy-efficient windows, doors, and appliances. Energy-saving features are attractive to buyers and can also help reduce utility costs. - Fresh Paint:
A fresh coat of paint throughout the house can make it feel clean, well-maintained, and more appealing to potential buyers. - Floor Upgrades:
Replace worn-out carpets or damaged flooring with new, modern flooring options like hardwood, laminate, or tile, depending on your budget and the style of your home.
- Smart Home Technology: Consider adding smart home features, like a programmable thermostat or a home security system, which can be attractive to tech-savvy buyers.
- Storage Solutions:
Add storage options such as built-in cabinets, closet organizers, or shelves to showcase the house’s organisational potential. - Modern Lighting Fixtures:
Improve lighting fixtures to create a well-lit and inviting atmosphere throughout the house.
