5 Home Renovation Trends To Consider
Creating spaces that are stylish, functional, and welcoming will not only attract buyers, but it'll also maximise your property's value. So, whether you're rolling up your sleeves for a DIY project or calling in the pros, like us, these trends will help you to create a space that sells.
1. Open plan living
Let's kick things off with a trend that's been a game-changer in interior design over the past few years: open concept living or open plan living. Buyers are loving spaces that feel airy and connected, where the kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas. Knocking down walls to create an open floor plan not only enhances natural light but it also creates a sense of spaciousness that's perfect for entertaining and family life. However, removing walls in your home isn't recommended without expert guidance, otherwise you might end up with a pile of
bricks instead of a living space. At Your Property Profits we have a trusted team of experts who can help with the ins and outs of changing your floor plan.
2. Sleek and functional kitchens
Considering the amount of time we spend in them, it's no surprise that a well-designed kitchen that blends style with practicality is on most buyer's must-have lists. Aim for a good amount of bench space, plenty of light, and upgraded hardware like taps and door handles, as well as clean lines, smart storage solutions, and high-quality appliances. Upgrading tired, old kitchens can increase the value of your property and if you use a professional, they can be done quickly and economically.
3. Luxurious bathrooms
Next up, beautiful bathrooms that feel like a spa retreat. Possibly fuelled by the amount of time we all spent at home during the pandemic (remember that?), buyers are now craving bathrooms with a touch of luxury. From stylish vanities and statement tiles to rainfall showers and soaking tubs, we want to be wowed. Adding extra storage and upgrading fixtures can also help to elevate older bathrooms, as well as adding plants and new bathroom linens.
4. Useable outdoor living spaces
Aussies love their outdoor living, and it's no surprise that outdoor spaces are a major selling point. Whether you have a sprawling backyard or a cosy balcony, creating inviting outdoor areas adds value to your home. Consider adding a deck or patio with comfortable seating, greenery, and relaxed lighting to extend your living space outdoors as it will make the floor plan of your home feel bigger to potential buyers. Add in some pot plants with low maintenance greenery, or even (good quality) fake plants to lift the space.
5. Neutral colour palettes
While it might not seem that exciting when it comes to selling your home a neutral colour palette is best. Using neutral colours throughout your home creates a cohesive, timeless look that appeals to a wide range of buyers. Soft greys, warm whites, and earthy tones create a blank canvas that allows potential buyers to imagine their own style and décor. Plus, it'll make it easier to style your home for sale. The Your Property Profits in-house stylist can also help
clients to create a buyer's paradise on sale day - we organise for furniture hire, artwork and plants, everything you'll need to really showcase your home.
