Selling

Are you looking to sell your apartment in the near future? Small investments in the aesthetic of the property could add value to the property and increase your ROI.

Paint the walls
It's not a secret that wall colours can attract or distract a home buyer. 
Having bold paint colour is a way to express your personal style within your apartment  But, prospective buyers may not share the same affinity for such boldness. It may change their view on how they see the apartment.  

Consider repainting the walls of the apartment's interior with a neutral colour. Having neutral colours can make an apartment feel larger, and it will present the space as a blank canvas for prospective buyers' personalization.

Resurface Kitchen cabinets
The kitchen can be seen as the heart of a household, it can be a make-or-break feature for prospective buyers. 
If the prospective buyer has no plan of remodeling the property, then, they will surely want a place that is functional and at least fully fitted. 
A fast way to give the kitchen a makeover without breaking the bank is to resurface the kitchen cabinets. 
You can resurface the kitchen structurally and add a new coat of paint. 
Resurfacing kitchen cabinets can save you up to 40%, rather than buying new kitchen cabinets. 

Replacing kitchen faucets
New faucets make the kitchen looks modern. 

Bathroom
Replacing the showerhead with a modernized shower. You can make the bathroom into a spa with rainfall showerheads.

One of the fastest ways to add a wow factor to the bathroom is by having a framed mirror.
Remember, no one wants an inferior bathroom. 

Adding smart technology
Smart technology can add convenience to property owners. Although, the design and style of an apartment are the leading factors to attract prospective buyers to the property. Smart devices add convenience and can also be considered when buying an apartment. 

You can add smart thermostats and smart lighting into the apartment  Adding smart technology to the apartment can increase its value.
