Are you looking to put a new property on the market for rent?

Perhaps, you are scratching your head, wondering how you may be able to make the most of Perth’s rental boom?

At ProProperty Group, we take pride in not only offering an elite property management service, but also offering holistic advice to our clients on how they can best get the maximum returns from their properties. A few of our clients have been asking us how they may be able to add more value to your rental property, and what updates they can do immediately. In this article, we are discussing just that.

 

New carpets

 

Carpets are often an underlooked part of a home. We have seen plenty of rentals in our hay-day that are stained, worn-out or simply outdated. By installing a new set of carpets in your home, you elevate the feel of your interiors as a whole.

 

Air conditioning

 

When summer hits, your tenants will feel it. Be sure to instal a new air conditioner or replace an outdated one to improve your home’s perceived value. Some of the rental properties we have seen in the past are more vintage homes that do not have fully ducted air conditioning, so installing something to keep your tenants cool in summer will hold its weight in gold.

 

Added storage space

 

You can never have too much storage space. Tenants are attracted to homes that have extra cupboards, shelving, garage space and an outdoor shed.

 

A bathroom renovation

 

A fresh looking bathroom is cornerstone to the over all perception of your rental home. Everyone loves a fresh looking bathroom that is clean from dirty grout, new tiles and updated bathroom features. Quick fixes can include changing the shower head, handles and replacing the mirror.

 

Add a new bedroom

 

Do you have a sunroom or a study room that isn’t been very used? Why not make this into another bedroom? That way your two-bedroom home is suddenly a private and spacious three-bedroom haven. Couples with a child or young flatmates wanting to be close to their university will jump at this.

 

More parking space

 

You could add nearly an additional $50 a week in rent just by having a carport space for your tenant. If your property is in an inner-city location, then that parking spot holds that much more value.
