House prices have risen phenomenally this year and it is definitely a sellers’ market because as soon as a house becomes available it is sold within a few days, but for those thinking of selling it is still important to make the most of your property so that you get the best possible price.

Adding extra rooms or making it appear that there are extra rooms is a worthwhile investment as this will always boost the value of your property. A loft conversion is a good choice if your property is suitable. As long as the height inside your loft is high enough that allows you to stand upright in a large proportion of It, it is probably feasible. A competent builder will be able to advice you on regulations and permissions that will be needed should you proceed.

If you have the outside space many people put a conservatory on the house. Smaller conservatories can often be built without the need for planning permission although building regulations will need to be sought in some cases such as if you want internal doors in the conservatory to be normal doors not exterior doors.

Converting the garage into a playroom, office or even a utility room is a simple way to extend the living space of the property and can be done quite cheaply.
