A bathroom makeover can have a significant impact upon the saleability of a property according to Ratedpeople.com, the UK’s largest match making service for home improvers and recommended tradesmen.
Bathroom hardware is continually evolving, and as such, there are now many different ways in which a bathroom renovation can make a home more appealing. A poor quality or even unclean bathroom is one of the biggest deterrents for buyers viewing their options on various homes on the market, and so it is of great importance that home owners make the most of their bathroom as a key sale asset.
Installing a dual flush toilet or, even better, a water saving device for your toilet can save you litres of water and lots of money.
Another room saving tip and a preference for master bathrooms is to install a double sink. This can go a long way towards enhancing saleability, offering the benefit of increased space as well as reducing any existing morning queues for the sink for homeowners to get ready for the day ahead.
Ottokar Rosenberger, Director of Marketing at Ratedpeople.com, commented: “The bathroom is one of the most important rooms when it comes to selling a property, as it is a room that is very personal to home owners in terms of hygiene. A well presented bathroom is a must if a home is to have any chance of being sold, and a renovation is a great way to achieve this.
“A bathroom's first impression on a prospective buyer is also influenced by small things such as smell as well as sight, so little innovations around the room such as pot pourri or decorations can tilt any potential buyer towards favouring the property over others.”
