Data shows that upgrading your home impacts its value for a sale in the market or even increases its rental value.

It's the festive season and people love to buy each other sweets. But, why not be sweet enough to upgrade the house to its former glory? The pipes are squeaky, the roof is leaking, the furniture livery has lost its sheen and your tiles are broken. Not to mention the paint, the walls are worn out. It's like the whole thing is scorching and in need of refreshment. In the USA around $430 billion has been spent on refurbishing the house, they call it home improvement there. This was a number reported by the Harvard Joint Centre for Housing Studies.

In India, the absence of data makes it difficult. But media reports suggest the spending to be around $18 billion. For a country of the size of India only $18 billion is a very dismal number. It's about time this number increased by 100x. Data from Indiassetz shows that there are 82 million people who own a good amount of real estate in India, which is valued at more than Rs 1 crore.

Now you are going to know what you must do in order to get the value of your house.

1. Upgrade your garage

All those greasy stains on the wall and snoot need to go asap. Maybe add a tool kit and a fire extinguisher along with the paint job. It would be fantastic to make this change just to make guests realize that you like your home to care for the automobile that you love.

2. Get new interiors or just refurbish the old

Indiassetz can get you verified vendors to come and spruce up your home in under a month. Replace door handles, and the lighting and obviously get your entire house painted. Check out wall textures that you can use to brighten your home.

Add a dash of wallpaper and then you may want to design things according to the theme that you wish your house to carry for the next five years. Remember to get a paint coat that can weather the rain and the hard sun.

Also, get your floors cleaned, maybe you can add new tiles as well. Get your windows washed too.

The linen wardrobe, the bedsheets, cushion covers, table cloth and cutlery should be replaced too. Make it colourful to brighten the festive season. Make sure you have your mattresses cleaned and have bed sheets that match the colour of the room. In all, look to brighten the house.

3. Plumbing

The million-dollar problem: you wouldn't believe it, taps, pipes & faucets become squeaky and troublesome. If you are one of those who turn off the main water line every day because of leaky taps then you need to realize that it's time for an upgrade. But it does not cost you a million-dollar upgrade, for a few thousand rupees you will have thousands of litres of water saved.

4. Roofing

Experience shows that roofs if not waterproofed can cause a lot of damage in the form of mold in the house because of dampness. This has to be scientific, it cannot be randomly done. Imagine you are living in Bengaluru, which was devastated by rain recently, roof seepage was a source of many problems for homeowners who had painted their houses in the summer. At Indiassetz we can guide you through this process with certified and verified vendors.
