The Story
How a £7,000 investment added £20,000 in value, transforming a tired rental property into a renewed asset ready for sale.
When a long-term tenant moved out, the landlord was ready to sell. After years of dependable rent, the property was showing its age: dark walls, dated finishes, and tired fittings.
Instead of rushing to market, we proposed a different route: a targeted refresh designed around impact, not expense.
Through our Property Health Check, we created a plan within a modest £7,000 budget: repainting throughout, upgrading flooring, and fully refurbishing the bathroom. The result? A brighter, more inviting home that immediately redefined its appeal.
The Outcome
A revaluation confirmed a £20,000 uplift in capital value.
What began as an exit conversation became a lesson in opportunity: small, strategic improvements can extend the life of a rental investment or increase sales potential and unlock value that’s easily overlooked.
