Steps in Starting Your Rental Business in the Philippines

You might not think about it, but your home is your most important asset. It's where you live and where you keep all of your belongings. You also probably don't think about how much money you're spending to maintain that asset. But if you make some simple home upgrades, you can increase your house's value without putting too much money down—and save on energy bills along the way! We'll show you what types of projects are easiest to do yourself with only essential tools and skills required (or hire a handyman), plus we'll give a few examples of what each project could add in resale value to your property (and why!).


Improve the Home Interior

This is a great time to take stock of your home and see what needs to be changed. Remove clutter, get rid of the old, and replace it with quality furniture in good condition. Add a few pieces you love, even if they're used or vintage. If you don't have much money but need new furniture, check out thrift stores or garage sales for something affordable yet stylish.


Add some color to the walls by replacing old paint with a fresh coat of paint in fun colors like mint green or cobalt blue—or even go bolder with stripes! Even if your walls are heavily textured or patterned (like wood paneling), it's easy to add wallpaper so that they stand out more than ever before without changing the texture itself too much! You can also use removable wallpaper in small spaces such as bathrooms, where permanent changes aren't possible due to code restrictions.


Basic Bathroom Upgrades

New bathroom fixtures are a great way to add value to your home and don't have to be expensive. Replacing old fixtures like shower heads and faucets with new ones will make your bathroom feel more likable and more modern, even if they're not the most high-end brands. You can also update your lighting by replacing old bulbs with LEDs or CFLs (compact fluorescent lights).


As with any other room in the house, you don't need to replace everything at once! Start with one fixture or aspect of the room that bothers you most—like an ugly mirror—and then move on.


Kitchen Update

Every kitchen is dubbed as the heart of a home, so why not give it a makeover? This is an excellent investment if you're planning to stay in your home for more than five years. If things are starting to look dingy or outdated, here are some quick fixes that can spruce up your kitchen quickly and easily:

  • Replace old countertops and old cabinets with new ones.

  • Replace old flooring with new tile or wood flooring (if you have wood floors).

  • Replace old appliances with updated versions that match the style of your kitchen (if they don't).

  • Upgrade the sink—get one that matches the rest of your fixtures and appliances if it doesn't already! You might even consider getting an undermount sink so you can add granite or quartz onto it. The same goes for faucets; if they don't match, now's as good a time as any to replace them!


Window treatments improvements

It's time to update your window treatments—clean your curtains, blinds, and shades. Replace old window treatments with new ones.


Update fixtures

The fixtures in your home can make or break a room, so updating them will add value to your home.


Replace light fixtures to create a more energy-efficient and stylish space; update the showerhead, faucet, and toilet seat; replace towel racks and shower curtains with new ones that coordinate with your updated décor.


Add Crown Moldings

Crown molding for your home is a great way to add value. It can be done in an hour or two, and it's one of the easiest things to make your home more attractive.


Crown molding is an easy way to give any room a finished look, but it's essential that you get it right because there are many types of crown molding available, and each type has its unique shape and style. The suitable crown molding for your home will make all the difference in how good it looks once installed—and how much money will be added as part of its value when the selling time comes around again!


If you want to install some crown molding in your home, then here are some tips on choosing which type would work best.


Freshen up the walls

  • Freshen up the walls.

  • Change or add wallpaper.

  • Paint a mural on your wall that shows off a favorite hobby or activity you like to do in your spare time.

  • Add borders around the edges of each room to help break up and define space.


Your home is the most important asset you own. Taking care of it will help you keep its value up.

Your home is the most important asset you own. Taking care of it will help you keep its value up, so when it comes time to sell or refinance, your home will be ready to perform at its best.

Here are some simple ways to add value to your home:

  • Maintain your landscaping. Keep plants and bushes trimmed back, so they don't get too big and overgrow the property line; this is especially important if there's a fence nearby (people love fences).

  • Re-paint the exterior every couple of years for a fresh new look! As many people say, having a fresh coat of paint can do wonders for giving curb appeal!

  • Get rid of clutter! Clutter makes homes look messy and cluttered but also gives off an air that nobody pays attention to what they're doing as far as cleanliness goes. Make sure all surfaces are clear, so everything looks neat in general—it'll make all the difference in how much people appreciate their visits here!


Once you start making a few improvements, you'll probably get more ideas and want to make even more. These are easy, cheap, and effective changes you can start making immediately. However, they are only scratching the surface. For more significant projects, it may require an investment of time and money. Keep in mind that there is nothing wrong with letting professionals help you with these projects if you do not have enough time to do them yourself. Otherwise, all these improvements will add value to your property and increase its appeal all around. Make sure, however, that every change will add to the price of your home when it is sold; otherwise, you might end up in a situation where you cannot sell it at all!
