Could double glazing boost Manchester property value?

The value of property in the north-west fell more significantly during February than in any other part of the UK, it has been revealed, which may have left Manchester-based homeowners concerned about how they can boost their own home's value.

Figures released by the Land Registry revealed that the average property price in the region last month stood at £114,622 - a decline on the previous year's figure of 4.1 per cent.

In addition, during December 2008 the number of completed house sales fell by 55 per cent to 36,341 from 81,300 in December 2007.

People living in a flat or terraced property are likely to have seen their home decline the most in value over recent months, at 17.2 per cent and 17.7 per cent respectively.

So what can a homeowner do to increase the value of their property?

A visit to Stockport-based double glazing supplier Force 8 may provide the answer.

Investing in plastic windows that have been double glazed could be an effective way of boosting a building's environmental credentials by keeping the cold air out and heating bills down.

Furthermore, PVCu windows could make an attractive addition to any home.
