It’s what’s on the inside that counts (and earns)
When the cleaners have left, you may still have items that need addressing and depending on the renovation budget of your property owner (they love spending money on their properties), you can go a long way to increasing that rental value.
* Try to see every part of the space through visual merchandisers’ eyes – that’s what your potential lessees will be doing, after all!
* Replace flickering lights
* Touch up paintwork
* Give the impression of as much light, “air” and space as possible
* For dated properties, consider renovation work to give a more modern look (such as removing a wall to create a large open plan or modernizing window dressings)
* Replace any stained or tatty carpet
* Ensure staff and hygiene facilities are clean and well lit
* Clean air-conditioning filters to stop dust accumulating while the property is on the market
* Air the property to remove any bad smells from cleaning or previous tenants. Consider room deodorisers to keep the property smelling fresh.
* Remove all trace of previous tenants including rubbish and abandoned materials or merchandising props.
* If there are shop fittings, ensure they are a “blank slate” for new tenants
* Remove any dramatic colours or old branding
* For light industrial or large showroom sites, ensure access is clear and easy. Turn small steps to ramps to minimize any potential “objections” from lessees.
* Using brighter, targeted lighting to draw attention to building features
* Target to the right audience – for example if your property caters to small food operations, use lighting and even furniture to highlight alfresco dining opportunities. For a potential fashion store, repaint in contemporary colours and install attractive lighting.
* Use pictorial signage in shop windows to highlight “what could be” not just “for lease”.
