To help you enhance your property’s prospects, read these top five kitchen renovation tips which will help you transform the look of the space and attract more tenants.
Expand the space
One of the most off-putting elements of a property is a small kitchen, especially if your tenant is an avid cook who intends to spend a lot of their time in the kitchen. While it may not be an option to make the kitchen look physically bigger, there are several ways to make it appear larger without knocking down any walls.
The best tip for creating the appearance of a larger kitchen is to use minimalistic and light paint, such as white, beige or even yellow which will make your kitchen look lighter and more spacious. You could also consider fitting a peninsula-shaped island counter, which will offer your tenants more food prepping space without making your kitchen appear cramped.
Update the decor
If your kitchen looks outdated or dull, but you only have the budget to make a few adjustments, you should start with the worktops. You could swap out the old worktops with marble to give a luxurious feel to the kitchen, which is a great selling point for tenants who like to entertain their guests. You could even add a pop of colour to the kitchen cupboards to make this room stand out, making sure it is a memorable visit for your potential tenants.
For modern kitchen decor, you should get some inspiration from the latest RW Invest developments, which are minimalistic yet elegant – an ideal look if your target tenants are young professionals looking for a contemporary living space.
Leave it to the professionals
If you’re planning a complete kitchen renovation, then unless you’re an interior designer or have experience in remodelling, you should leave it to the professionals. You may think that the DIY route is the cheapest way to conduct a renovation. However, if anything goes wrong this could result in further costs you may not be able to afford.
If you have no idea where to start with your design ideas, then maybe you should seek advice from someone you know who has an eye for detail. If you have a flexible budget, you could hire a professional interior designer. You may already have a design plan, so all you need to is research a team of kitchen experts who will offer you a fair price for a quality job. The best way to find out if a company is any good is through word of mouth, so ask your friends and family for advice in order to find the best person for the job.
