How to protect the value of your property in Adelaide

Written by Posted On Thursday, 14 September 2017 05:13

So you put all your savings into a deposit to buy your first investment property. You might have lived in it for a while and now you've got tenants, this is great news and hopefully, your property will increase its value too. Before we start thinking about increasing its value, let's talk about holding its value at a minimum cost. After all, this is an investment property and you need to treat it as such, consider the following tips:

Tip 1: Keeping your carpets clean vs replacing your carpets

Replacing carpets can be a very expensive exercise, our research shows that a square meter of a low-end carpet in Adelaide can cost around $60 plus installation, and of course, this doesn't include the time and effort invested in finding a good supplier, a good value for money option, choosing the right colours amongst other things.

So what’s a better option, encourage your tenants to steam clean your carpets at least once a year. If you have a preferred professional carpet cleaner pass on their contact details and ask them to get in contact directly. Adelaide carpet cleaning services are very popular, however, not everyone will be qualified or experienced enough to do a professional job and remove the toughest stains, hence why it is important to get a professional carpet cleaner. In our blog, you will also find additional information about the different carpet cleaning services available in Adelaide.

Tip 2: should I re-stretch or restore my carpets or replace?

We’ve seen many customers wondering which would be the most affordable option and the answer to this question is that you can save quite a bit of money by re-stretching your carpets or book a carpet restoration professional. If you carpets are looking a bit loose or perhaps some areas have been damaged, a carpet care professional will be able to help you. Don’t waste your time and money replacing what can be fixed.

Tip 3: My tiles are looking dull, what can I do?

Most professional carpet cleaners in Adelaide also offer tile cleaning services, in recent years most new houses, units and apartments in Adelaide have been built with more tiles than carpets, but once again not everyone has the right equipment or experience to provide you with a professional tile cleaning service. Reviews and social media pages generally show the quality of work that you will be able to get from these professionals and if you have any concerns, get in contact with them and ask as many questions as you like so you can a get a feel for the kind of service they might be able to provide. Tile cleaners in Adelaide are most likely able to refill grouts and also re-seal grouts in kitchens and bathrooms providing tenants or new buyers with a much better experience when they walk through your property.
