The owners of the house are looking to sell their Property This heat can significantly increase its value by some desirable characteristics, new Research Gives suggestions.
A study commissioned by property portal Zoopla Indicates that a well -laid garden or a fresh swimming pools can add thousands to the price of home asking during the warm months.
Conclusion, more than 100 is based on insight from the UK estate agentsCompared to other times of the year compared to recommended for prices for properties for properties with specific facilities between May and August.
Experts Based on their evaluation on the property of a specific three-bedroom, which is currently an average UK asking for a price of £ 324,000.
Among the most attractive characteristics, a South-Elastic or Sunny Garden was found to add an average of £ 5,832 to the price of a three-bedroom house.
A balcony can also command an additional £ 4,018 sold during the summer season. For people with more spectacular outdoor features, a swimming pool was estimated to increase the price by £ 5,897, while a hot tub could usually add £ 2,819.
Conversely, research also highlighted an occasion for buyers, suggesting that purchasing houses with these special features may lead to a possible bargain “out of season”.
Air conditioning If a property was sold in summer, it could add about 4,925 pounds, agents estimate.
Many features also add value in winter, showing zopla’s research.
Agents estimated that a traditional, wood burning chimneys If a property is sold in winter, adds £ 4,568, while a range style cooker can add £ 3,337 on an average.
Under-floor heating will command an additional £ 3,985 on average and energy efficiency measures, such as double glazing, can add £ 3,402, it was estimated.
How much a feature can add to the value of a property will depend on individual conditions, such as where it is located in the UK, how popular the local area is with buyers, and the desirability of other characteristics in the house.
Zopla’s consumer expert Daniel Kople said: “Research clearly indicates that home buyers are inspired by weather and, in some cases, some characteristics may help sellers to get more for their home.”
He said: “While it is human nature A stunning garden, or a cool pool in summer, or during the winter should be designed for features, home buyers should keep in mind that they will also face the ongoing cost for these items, especially in relation to energy use. Therefore, buyers should do this in their budget.
“All homes vary, so vendors should seek beSPOKE advice from an estate agent, who will be able to advise if their house can be more desirable and command high inquiries during summer.”
Country House Associate Director Clair Carter at John de Wood & Company said: “The Country House Market has always been a natural rhythm with the season – not only in terms of facilities, but also places.
“The coastal houses look especially the best when the sun is shining and the same goes to the swimming pool and the tennis court. It is not necessarily a case that adds value, but they become more emotionally compelling – a magnificent garden can give a fully tip to a brilliant garden on a cold winter day or summer.
“The time of the year is very important for the presentation, for example, a house photographed in January looks completely different till May. When selling in winter, I always encourage my customers to illuminate the fire and turn on the heating of the bottom floor because no one wants to feel chiri during summer. Sun-dapped is with terraces.
“I am also looking at the increasing demand for natural swimming ponds or lakes, which stop their appeal throughout the year. Buyers know rapidly about health benefits-they are better for the environment, chemical-free, and more naturally fit with landscape.
“Unlike a traditional pool, which feels seasonal, a well -designed swimming lake can feel like a part of rural areas, can be used in summer and beautiful even in winter. Finally, all the weather is about catching the imagination of buyers and helping them imagine their lives.”
Estate agents were researched in June by mortar research.
