What are Liveability features?
These are property features which offer the potential for reduced running costs and increased comfort, if used correctly by the occupant.
For many years builders, architects and construction industry bodies have been designing homes with these principles in mind. But what would happen when you came to sell your home, a home where you had invested in water saving shower heads or solar p.v systems just to name a few? The agent would right a little dot point to say – Solar panels. That was about the extent of real estate marketing, until recently.
I have just completed award-winning Liveability Real Estate Specialist training which qualifies me to identify and accurately market an EXTRA 17 Liveability Features. These extra features are unlocking the hidden value of your home because they offer the potential for reduced running costs and increased comfort, if used correctly. With power costs growing every year it just makes sense that these new features can make your prooerty stand out when it comes time to sell.
