​After your house, your car is probably the most expensive asset you own. Not only is an automobile financially valuable, but so much of our lives depend on driving around. Despite that, many people are appallingly blasé when it comes to protecting their car. They leave it out front of their homes, exposed to the elements and passers-by, or house it in a garage behind a flimsy and outdated roller door.

​It is often said that the single most important component for the value of a house is the location.

Many other factors are considered when establishing how much a property is worth – things like street appeal, automation, and security. Here are just a few of the reasons why you might want to increase the value of your home, and how you can go about it.
