4 ways to add value to your West Midlands home this Summer

Your home is one of the biggest investments you make in your lifetime, so why not make the most of it by adding as much value as you can? Enhancing and expanding on what your home already has to offer is a good way to ensure you keep your outlays within your budget, whilst enjoying a good return on investment when the time comes to sell.

We have listed 4 of the most worthwhile home improvements that can add value to your West Midlands home, enhancing the functionality and kerb appeal for potential buyers.

House prices in the West Midlands

Before improving your home with a vision to add value, it’s a good idea to know what your home is currently worth. You can find out the value of your home through trusted house price estimate sites, like Rightmove or Zoopla. You can also compare your home to similar ones on the market in your local area.

The average property value for the West Midlands has increased by more than 10 per cent in the last year and the average price is approximately £240,528, following an annual increase of more than £22,000, according to the Office for National Statistics.

Create a sense of open plan living with bifold doors to add value to your home

Bifold doors have the beautiful ability to really bring the outside in. Their unique concertina-style opening means that the individual panes fold back against themselves, and when fully open, they create a seamless link between your home and garden. This can dramatically increase your living space and property value, allowing you to get the most out of your property.

We offer bifold doors in both modern uPVC and stylish aluminium, so there is something to suit everyone’s personal style and budget.

Extend your West Midlands home with a modern conservatory that adds value

Conservatories are another great way of adding space and value to your property. They give you the opportunity to create a modern and stylish extension that can be used for anything you want, from extra dining space to a home office; there are no limits to what you can use your conservatory space for.

The extra space and abundance of natural light that comes with a conservatory will be very appealing to potential buyers. Plus, in most cases, planning permission is not required for a conservatory because adding one to your home is usually covered under permitted development rules.

Go for double glazing to add value to your home

Double glazed windows are renowned for boosting your home’s energy efficiency, giving you savings on your energy bills and keeping you comfortable all year round. Replacing your old windows with A-rated uPVC double glazed windows will add value to your home, and make it more appealing to buyers since they will know they won’t need to replace the windows for some time. Replacing old glazing with new double glazing is a smart and worthwhile investment sure to add value.

Add security, style, and value with a composite door

Your front door is the focal point of your home and should offer your property outstanding protection and security whilst also making a lasting first impression. Composite doors are known for offering outstanding levels of security thanks to being made of different materials that expertly combine to enhance security. They’re also extremely low maintenance and offer unparalleled levels of thermal efficiency.

A new composite door will help increase kerb appeal and undoubtedly boost the value of your West Midlands home. Here at Leamore, we offer 2 types of composite door from leading manufacturers designed to suit the needs of every homeowner.
