How can your staircase help sell your home?
With the housing market becoming increasingly competitive, it is difficult to stand out among the many different properties. In this day and age of 'Instagrammable' content, property buyers are more concerned than ever with not only the functionality of a property, but also its aesthetics. Buyers are more drawn to modern pieces which really bring the wow factor to their potential new home. Houses tend to look very similar. Especially for those homeowners who follow the latest interior design trends, their house can end up looking like every other house on the market. However, a modern-looking staircase can really help to set your home apart from the rest.
This is why bespoke staircases are the ideal way to add small finishing touches to your home. It may seem like an inconvenience and a waste of time. However, it can be the deciding factor in whether or not someone buys your property. These staircases not only add a different feel to the home, but they can also increase the value of the property.
With staircases being a focal point of many homes and the first thing, you see when you walk through the door, it really helps to set out a good first impression for the rest of the house. A well-designed staircase will keep property buyers' eyes glued to the staircase and have them thinking about long after they've left. It establishes the tone for the rest of the interior and will leave a lasting impression on any visitors.
Your staircase may look modern but walking up a creaky flight of stairs can really set the tone for the rest of the house. It demonstrates the quality and durability of the home, and may deter potential buyers due to the risk of additional costs incurred in order to repair the stairs.
If your home is on the smaller side, certain staircases, such as a spiral staircase, can help you make the most of your available space. They not only help to free up space, but they can also drastically change the tone of your home and provide a fresh new look and feel. This not only provides the functionality of a standard staircase, but it can also increase the square foot of the house, helping to increase its value.
