1. Tankless Water Heater
Many homeowners don't even consider installing a tankless water heater because of the additional cost of installation. But the tankless heater could pay for itself by providing hot water with less energy use. Even better, it can increase your home's value. This can help to give your home a competitive edge over similar homes, or may help you to close a deal faster.
So if you're thinking you might sell your home sometime in the water heater's lifetime, a modern tankless water heater is likely a great investment. These water heaters heat water up quickly so you can use it at the time you need it rather than heating it and storing it in a tank for the entire day.
2. Smart Home Features
Smart home features can be a huge selling point for buyers who want a modern, convenient home. Smart home features can provide automation and place the controls for many home appliances and fixtures right under your fingertips by connecting to your smartphone. By making your home more desirable, these features may help your home sell faster.
You've probably heard that you can get smart AC and security systems, which you can then control from your smartphone. But did you know that some bathroom elements can also hook up to your smartphone? A smart shower head, a smart water heater system, smart bathroom lighting, and smart window shades are a few ways to create a smart bathroom.
3. High-Tech Water-Saving Fixtures
Today's home buyers value their money, and so they value features that can help them save money on their bills (such as energy-saving and water-saving appliances). For this reason, you'll want to add some of these eco-friendly fixtures to your bathroom if you want to cater to potential home buyers.
In addition to low-flow faucets and showerheads, you could consider a low-flow toilet, a graywater system (such as a sink-to-toilet system), or other modern ways to reduce the environmental footprint of your bathroom.
4. Alternative Energy Sources
One way you can incorporate solar power into your bathroom is by choosing a solar-powered hot water heating system. Another option is to install solar-powered blinds or awnings on the bathroom windows.
Get creative; the more items you run on solar power, the more money you (and future buyers) can save on electricity bills. Then, make sure to point out these electricity-saving features when buyers come to view your home.
5. Luxury Toilet
While installing an entire spa complete with hot tub may be a hefty investment, you can instead opt to add a dash of luxury with a much smaller investment. For instance, replacing a run-of-the-mill toilet with a luxury toilet can make your bathroom look very attractive.
Some luxury toilets have high-tech features, such as motion sensors, hands-free flushing, or even Bluetooth. Adding luxury to everyday items like the toilet can help buyers envision how living in your home will improve their day-to-day lifestyle.
These high-tech bathroom upgrades can help you add value, pizzazz, and even a significant amount of luxury to help attract buyers and encourage them to make generous offers on your house.
