Top Tip Number 3!

Refit the Kitchen! Prospective buyers know they’re going to spend a lot of time in the kitchen of any house that they buy. A tidy, modern looking kitchen can seriously improve the value of a home; when it comes to updating there are two options: replace or recover. The state of your current kitchen, budget and end goal will determine which is the right option for you. Whether your looking to replace or recover, your key targets are benches, cabinets, drawer fronts, skirting; handles, whether door, drawer or cabinet are noticed more than most people realise and new or cleaned handles can make a big difference at little cost. One addition to your kitchen that can really bring a modern feel is splashback glass, it has a very clean look and comes in a wide range of colours to suit any colour scheme.

To be honest, there is some interesting data being gathered which I think the elected Councillors will consider.

Hi everyone, thank you for your thoughts - it's been an interesting discussion! Comments are now closed.

The future of Upper Hutt's ratepayer-funded recycling service in Upper Hutt is under scrutiny.
Setup and operational costs have been higher than expected while tonnage figures for the city overall indicate the number of people recycling has not increased, a city council report says.
What do you think? Have you used the service often? Is it worth the money put in? Comments may be used in print unless stated otherwise with NFP (Not For Print).

Top Tip Number 2.

Add a Deck If you have the room adding a deck is one of the simplest ways to increase the value of your property. A deck is one of the best ways to create the much-desired ‘indoor-outdoor flow’. They’re also great for entertaining, something potential homebuyers will want to visualise when inspecting properties.
