Do you like to have your cake and eat it?
When refurbing property I think youโre looking for two things:
- Creating something that WOWโs your customers (your tenants) so you can charge more and have a wider choice of tenants to choose from.
- Making sure the money you spend lasts, so you donโt have to do it again!
If that refurb was a cake what would it be? Iโd hope it would be ever so sweet and tastes incredible!
Thatโs what we try to do on every refurb. Weโre always looking for simple things to create WOW moments:
- Make wood cladding on-trend with Regal greenโs
- Your bathroom is one of the biggest selling points โ marble effect tiles will blow your tenants away!
- Carpets โ Noble heathers donโt cost the earth and will last longer
On the other side of that coin, you need to think about how your tenants will use your property and what you can do to minimise damage / wear and tear:
- Hard tread matting at the front door โ to stop your carpets from being wrecked by encouraging tenants to wipe their feet
- The dining room laminated rather than carpeted to prevent staining
- Doorstops โ wherever thereโs an external door you need a doorstop to protect your walls
Chris, one of our directors did a video covering all of these points on a recent refurb:
You know what though we donโt do this for the benefit of our health, we do it to make more money for you.
The property we did this refurb on went from ยฃ425 rent to ยฃ695, some of that was due to the market moving higher, but as you can see the finish was amazing meaning we could charge a lot more!
So my question is โ do you want your cake and eat it?
If so give us a bell!
