Trending Ideas: 5 Ways To Make Your Home Office A Selling Point

Selling your home in Tampa should be a breeze. After all, it’s Florida, and close to everything every tourist likes to visit. However, you might be concerned that you won’t sell your home as fast because you created a home office space within your home. Never fear! There are ways to make this space a great selling point.

Promote It As A Quiet Space Of Reflection

“Me time” is a tough thing to get, especially with the kids being home from school most of this past year and telecommuting to work or working from home. A lot of buyers are looking for that quiet little nook in a home where they can hide out, even for a few minutes of peace and quiet. If your home office is within a room where doors can be closed and silence is all you hear, use that. Buyers will love the idea of having a room/office where they can get a little “me time.”

Spare Rooms Can Be Home Offices But Should Be Easily Convertible

If you have extra bedrooms in your home and you have converted one of those extra bedrooms into a home office, make sure it can be converted back. It helps to have a murphy bed in the wall, or a desk where someone can set a computer for homework or a gaming system for playtime. In fact, you can even promote a built-in office corner as a multi-purpose nook! Any buyer shying away from “office space” can reimagine it when you promote it as something else.

When The Home Office Is In The Basement

Some people opt to build a home office into their basements. This might be a no-go for buyers until you show them that this space is actually finished. A partially finished basement can be remodeled into a fully finished basement, or the finished space can be kept as a rec room for the kids. For parents with special needs children, the office space in the basement can be made into a therapy room.

You Have Unbelievable WiFi In Your Neighborhood

With so many people working from home now, internet connectivity is very important. If your home is in an ideal location for fantastic WiFi connections, that office space is perfect for any buyer needing all-day internet connections that cannot fail. Just let them connect as guests when they tour your home to see how the service, in combination with their own little home office space, can raise their productivity levels.

A Home Office You Can’t See Doubles As A Panic Room

Here’s a unique approach; a home office that you can’t readily see because you have cleverly disguised it from view becomes a panic room in the event of a home invasion. It’s not at a comfortable selling point, but the idea that a home does have a secret and secure space in which to hide and hunker down is a good selling point. Some people may also want a secret room for their treasures and storage of valuables, which this hiding office can provide.
