How to add value to your property - UK Property Investing

Please leave comment if you found this useful :-)

Very insightful and wow now Im energised to find some properties!

Do valuers use these statistics?

Does this include paying the builders, or is this just for the materials? Thanks.

Hi Rick, what’s your opinion on electric car gates? I’ve got a limited budget but want to invest on something to sell on if necessary? Much appreciated

Which will add the most value? Decking or Patio?

Amazing

You are sharing Great knowledge thank you

No mention of adding a new room or bathroom? Any opinions?

Hi , i am not sure about garage conversion , i think their decrease house value as a lot people's have garage on their check list then their buying house , without garage people's will pay less for house or not gonna buy it. This is just from my experience in uk market. I will think twice before converting garage.
Also what strategy are we speaking about single family let , flip or brrr ? Can you clarify in video.

Please help me to understand one thing. If I find a property, let's say for £100k, that I can apply all those adding value techniques, the new value of property wouldn't be much greater then a 'street value' right? How can I choose correct methods to avoid overinvesting in adding value to property. Thanks in advance! Good job keep up :)

By garage conversion do you mean convert a garage to a room or a room to a garage?

Is it sometimes not worth doing a £5/7k basic refurb (fresh paint, carpets, flooring throughout + new kitchen doors and new bathroom) if the other houses in the area look like poor for £600 rent, and that is the average rental in that area. ??

Great video. The figures are surprising. There are so many ways to add value which many would not have even thought about. Normally you hear that it is Kitchens & Bathrooms that help sell houses. Should those two be the first priority when looking to add value?

Really helpful video Rick! Thank you

Great video. Just add 439% on material cost in today’s money.

I can confirm I would only want to buy a house that had a kitchen and bathroom!

As a trademan these figures on costs are massively bullsht. Take this video with a pinch of salt

Converting the front garden to a driveway by dropping kerbs

Good video Rick. A combination of any of these should give you an indication of the end value before the valuers come in.
