Keeping your outdoor space beautifully presented is a great way to attract buyers to your property. In fact, according to a previous study by Axa Insurance, well-kept gardens can help to boost the value of a property by £2,000.
Taking the time to keep your garden neat and tidy will certainly win you some extra points.
5. Broken fence panels and cracked walls
Fences don’t come cheap, which is why most house-hunters look for a property with one that isn’t broken. In fact, research by Tom showed that broken fence panels or cracked walls can remove £1,000 from the value of your house.
Fences or walls add a sense of privacy to the home, keeping children safe and wild animals out. Without them, a garden doesn’t feel like the place of seclusion it should be. Looking to sell your house? Time to get that fence fixed first.
