Popular telelvision shows, such as Tidying Up with Marie Kondo, have highlighted the importance of having effective storage space in a home.
Sellers who take advantage of the organisation fad can increase their property’s appeal to potential buyers, says Adrian Goslett, regional director and chief executive of Re/Max of Southern Africa.
He says three ways sellers can enhance their home’s space include:
Declutter and reorganise
: Overfilled wardrobes and kitchen units make it seem as though there isn’t enough storage space in the home.
Enhance practicality:
There are plenty of clever storage trays, dividers, containers, hooks and tricks which make it easier to organise your storage.
Reclaim unused space:
There are so many unused, overlooked spaces in the home with huge potential for additional storage. For example, a small wall space next to a door frame can easily be converted into extra storage by installing shelving units.
