The property market right across Australia is a topic that’s constantly in conversation.

Land prices are in extreme demand and at an all-time high– and we all know there isn’t much more vacant land to go around!

It’s no wonder that business and farmowners are searching for the perfect way to add value to the asset they already have.

That’s why installing a shed on your property is a great prospect to investigate – not only will it benefit you while you live at the property, but if you ever think of selling, it will be a key feature which attracts buyers and increases your property value.

Why a shed is a good investment now

Sheds are a feature that every farm and business owner would love to have on their property, but not everyone takes up the opportunity.

The benefits of doing so before you look to sell are obvious – the sooner you erect your new structure; the more practical use you can get out of it before you go to market!

There’s more good news too – the sooner you put a shed on your property, the quicker your property value will increase. Now that’s an immediate value add!

Sheds also offer a cost effective way to create more space in your property and free up some space in your farm house, office or garage.

Have you ever thought that your space looks cluttered? Bikes, lawn mowers, gardening equipment or work benches can make ordinary household spaces such as spare rooms and garages look messy and claustrophobic. Besides, you’re probably not itching to use your possessions when they’re not accessible and easy to locate.

By adding a shed to your property, you’re literally creating a storage space which didn’t exist; therefore increasing your property’s storage capacity.

Selecting the right shed for your space will go a long way to ensuring it looks aesthetically pleasing and adds a positive feature to your property.

To make the right shed choice with this in mind, you should consider the position of where you locate the shed and the size of the ideal structure for your space.

You will want to maximise the available space you have and make sure it fits in well with the aesthetics of your farm or business.

Remember, if you’re adding a shed to your property you should view this purchase as an investment – it will add on plenty of value to your asset, so you want to ensure that you’re getting bang for your buck.

The quality of the shed you choose should be a key factor in helping you decide which shed is right for your space. Cheap, flimsy shed models might attract you with the price-tag, but they won’t go far in catching the eye of an eventual buyer for your farm or business.

By investing in the right product from the start, you can obtain a durable shed that will be a major selling point for your property.

See value in a shed, but not sure how it will look?

Knowing the ins and outs of your property can help determine which shed you purchase and where you locate it on your land.

Do you have an easement that you might need a building approval to build on? Or perhaps you want to build slightly off your home or business as a near-by structure?

You can also read about whether you’ll need to receive building approval in our latest blog on the topic.
