Home Improvements can be a very successful future investment. Figures above are based on typical value and are dependant on the capital invested in your home.
Not only can home improvements add a substantial increase to the value of your property, they also act as a very practical enhancement to your property, especially if you have a growing family or are not wishing to actually move away from where you currently live, as it maybe close to family and friends.
In the table above, the fitting / installation costs have been remove to show the real or true equity increase. i.e. a new Loft Conversion could cost £18,000 and could increase your property value by £40,000, so a true equity value increase, after costs, of £22,000
and similarly,
A new Extension could cost £30,000 and could increase your property value by £49,000, so a true equity value increase, after costs, of £19,000
A new Kitchen could cost £8,000 and could increase your property value by £18,000, so a true equity value increase, after costs, of £10,000
