Garden is one of the biggest factors of your property. Having a good looking garden can increase your house value by approx 15%. Many people these days are using different ideas to decorate their garden to increase the price of the property in the market. Most gardens these days have swimming pools, trampolines and other garden accessories which might be in an interest of the buyers.
I believe that this is a great idea and it will work. Another idea to do something with your garden is to increase the size of your conservatory to add more rooms in your property. I have recently done this and had conservatory increased with one extra room and a toilet. Before it was a 2 bedroom house with one bathroom and one reception but now it is a 3 bedroom house with 2 bathrooms, 1 reception and a living room. This change cost me approx £3,000 but has helped increased the price of my house by 15%, which is a lot of money.
This is just one example, recently my Uncle built a play ground in his back garden which includes five swings, two 12ft trampolines with safety nets and pads, 5 benches and a water fountain. How could he afford it? He has been a Doctor for over 40 years so this was nothing for him. His pension is more than my yearly salary, so just imagine how big his house is. I asked him why he built a playground for and spend all this money, he gently replied: in few months he wants to move somewhere small with his wife, so he wants to either rent of sell this property as a house or as a nursery. What a really good idea. He can make money by giving it for a rent as a nursery so he won’t really be loosing anything, which he spent to built it. May be I can add a 10ft trampoline on to my garden and create a playground for my kids.
