Three Property Resolutions for Your Flintshire Home 🏡

Three Property Resolutions for Your Flintshire Home 🏡

If you want to reset or refresh your life in the year ahead, why not make some property resolutions? New Year’s resolutions like losing weight or joining the gym are so last year. This year, why not do it differently? Make some New Year’s resolutions for your home. Here are a few to put on your list:

Resolution No. 1: Brighten up your life – brighten up your home
 
Now the Christmas decorations are due to come down (or maybe already have), it’s a good time to give your home a mini facelift.
 
Yes, maybe cash is tight after Christmas. But you can make it happen on a small budget in many ways. New paint, a feature wall, cushions, rugs, lamps or pictures can give your home a fresh look and help start 2025 with a positive vibe.
 
Resolution No. 2: Tackle those essential maintenance jobs
 
Just like dieting, home maintenance is one of those things that is easy to push down the road. However, failing to do essential maintenance can seriously damage your home’s health and affect its value.
 
January isn’t a great time to be doing roof repairs or outside painting, of course. But why not resolve to sit down with a piece of paper and a piece of cake (low-calorie cake, of course) and make a list?
 
Resolution No. 3: Start planning those dream home improvements
 
If you’ve always thought of doing a major home improvement project – like an extension, loft conversion or even a swanky garden lodge or cabin – then resolve to make 2025 the year it happens.
 
Remember: Builders and home improvement companies are often short of business during winter. So, by starting now, you might be able to tie them down to a bargain price.
 
New year, new home?
 
Making some New Year’s resolutions for your home can maintain or even add to its value and make it a much nicer place to live.
 
But if you’re starting to think you don’t love your home enough to lavish all this care and attention on it, maybe your resolution should be to move house in 2025.

  
We’ll be happy to give you advice on selling your home in 2025 and offer a valuation.

With the next Budget speech just around the corner, the property landscape could shift quickly. 📉📈 In this video, Ben breaks down why selling before the Budget could put you in a stronger position:

November has been an outstanding month for Keystone — and the data is crystal clear. From 1st to 24th November, we’ve agreed 23 property sales, making this one of the strongest months we’ve ever recorded.
