Three ways to improve the look (and value) of your property

Your property is important - it could be your home, it could be where you work, it could be an important investment. We all want to own property that looks its best - and there’s a definite correlation between the way a property presents and the value (both monetary and otherwise) that it holds.  

Our Sunshine Coast-based team has been helping the local community improve the look and value of their properties for over ten years. We do it through RAS-VERTEX - exterior painting, cleaning, maintenance and height safety. 

 Here are our top three priorities to consider if you want to improve the look, appeal and value of your property today. 

The roof

The roof is an extremely important part of a property, but too often it is overlooked. That could be because it’s up and out of the way; you can’t see it so you don’t think about it. But a well-maintained roof is worth its weight in gold, as it protects your home and provides a sense of safety and security to both current owners and prospective buyers. It’s very smart to get a professional to regularly check your roof, and undertake necessary maintenance, as roofs often suffer damage that you can’t easily see. That could directly benefit your bottom line when the next major storm comes through, or when it becomes time to sell. 

The front facade 

We’ve all been there - you turn up to an open house, see the state of the front facade, and either drive away or begrudgingly enter. A first impression is unchangeable, but there’s so much you can do to influence it. A professional exterior clean can take a property from zero to 100. You might think your property isn’t even that dirty, but everyday environmental factors mean our buildings attract grime that makes them look dull - it’s unavoidable. In the Sunshine Coast and other coastal regions in particular, our properties suffer all manner of water damage, salt damage and other elemental degradation. Investing in a high-quality exterior cleaning for your building will reward you in spades - across the look, feel and value of your property.  

A fresh coat of exterior paint  

Nothing makes a building look less impressive than peeling, faded paint. A fresh paint job has the ability to reinvigorate your property to an almost unimaginable extent. But exterior painting requires a unique skill set, as the walls and roof will first need to be cleaned to a professional standard before the painting commences. In addition, the painting itself is often tricky, with specific skills and equipment needed to navigate awkward corners, nooks and crannies. However, it’s well worth investing in a professional service, not just to feel better about the building where you live or work, but also to dramatically improve the value of the property.
