Small fixes, big results—maximise your property’s value with these repairs!

Selling a home in Cambridge is as much about presentation as it is about pricing. Buyers are drawn to homes that feel well-maintained and move-in ready, and certain repairs can make a significant difference in both buyer perception and sale price. At Citystay Property Agents, we guide sellers on how to maximise their return on investment with targeted repairs.

Common Issues in Cambridge Homes

Cambridge’s unique blend of older properties and modern developments often means sellers face a mix of challenges. For example:

  • Older homes may have worn floors, drafty windows, or outdated fixtures.
  • Modern homes might need minor touch-ups, such as repainting scuffed walls, cracks along the stairs, or addressing maintenance backlog.

Repairs That Add Value

  1. Walls and Ceilings: Repair cracks and paint with neutral colours for a clean and spacious feel.
  2. Kitchen and Bathroom Touch-ups: Replacing cabinet hardware, sealing grout, and fixing leaks can modernise these key spaces.
  3. Exterior Upkeep: Curb appeal matters—trim hedges, clean pathways, and repair any visible damage to doors and windows.
  4. Energy Efficiency: Sealing gaps around doors and windows not only appeals to buyers but can also be a great selling point for eco-conscious individuals.

Repairs to Avoid

While some repairs yield high returns, others don’t add as much value:

  • Overhauling entire kitchens or bathrooms.
  • Installing high-end, niche upgrades that might not appeal to a broad audience.
