Selling properties right now is tricky, with prospective buyers about to be burdened with enormous mortgages, so having little or nothing left over for refurbishment or decoration once they’ve moved in. This tightening of budgets makes it more important than ever to market your property in great cosmetic condition, so that buyers can move in and feel at home, without needing to make major changes to kitchens, bathrooms or the interior of their new home.
But having a property in great condition doesn’t just add value or desirability to those looking to sell their homes. On the rental side, we know the importance of reinvesting to keep your property looking its best so you can maximise achievable rent and attract tenants who will respect your property and stay for the long term.
We all know this, but many sellers and landlords struggle with the next step – getting started. This is no surprise as it can be tough to manage such projects at the same time as work and family life. Where do you start? Which projects deliver the best return on investment? Who can you trust to do the work? How do you know it won’t go over budget or be derailed somehow?
That’s where we come in.
Step one: Speak to us about your ideas.
Grace Miller not only offer sales and letting services, we can also project manage your property refurbishment, advising what we think needs to be done, getting quotes from our trusted contractors, overseeing the project and ensuring it’s been carried out to our high standards.
We know what buyers and renters look for. We know how you can invest wisely to maximise your asking or rental price. We work with trusted contractors who will do an excellent job at an honest price.
But we don’t leave anything to chance. You can be sure that we’ll visit your property regularly, keeping you up to date with reports and photos as the work is carried out. We’ll also be there at the end to finalise snagging and sign the work off once we are satisfied.
Working with us, you’ll get many years of experience and knowledge of the local market. There will be an immediate and obvious benefit to the refurbishment, and your property will see its full potential.
Before and after renovation
Here’s just one example of the many refurbishments we’ve managed: in this case, transforming a tired, unloved and old-fashioned-looking bathroom into a more clean and modern style.

In today’s challenging housing market, kerb appeal and interior layout and décor are more critical than ever to clinch a sale. Take the time to refurbish, thoroughly clean, declutter, make all necessary minor repairs, and consider new furnishings. This will all go a long way to impress buyers or tenants and convince them your home is the one.
