Britons looking to sell a home can increase their value with a few easy tricks.
One housing expert believes that boosting the price of your home does not have to be a costly endeavour. A task as simple as decluttering your home can be huge proactive and beneficial.

A clutter-free home allows prospective buyers to imagine themselves living there, according to the expert.

The expert said: "Clear out unnecessary items, organise spaces, and consider staging key rooms by rearranging furniture and making the best of any features.
"It allows buyers to see the full potential of the home, creating a positive impact on their perception and willingness to pay a premium."
The expert also suggested making some more investments in your kitchen before selling.
This room is often seen as the heart of the home, a hub not only for cooking but dining, drinking, and socialising too.
"Consider refinishing cabinets rather than replacing them, updating hardware, and adding a fresh backsplash," the expert suggested.
He continued: “These budget-friendly changes can give your kitchen a modern look and boost the overall value of your property without a hefty price tag."
The property expert also recommended enhancing your home's curb appeal to significantly impact its perceived value.
He said: "Investing in simple improvements like a fresh coat of paint for the front door, well-maintained landscaping and a tidy exterior can make a huge difference.
