3 reasons to upgrade to LED lighting if you’re selling your home

1. First impressions

First impressions have a big impact on the way people make purchases, and selling your home is no different. The first thing many real estate agents do before a home open is turn on all the lights and open the curtains so the rooms feel lighter and brighter.

Replacing old light fittings with new LED fittings can brighten and modernise your home, and even change the way things like floor tiles or paint colours look. It’s a simple, cost-effective upgrade that can make a lasting impression on potential buyers.

2. Energy efficiency

Buyers are more conscious than ever about running costs and sustainability. LED lights use around 85% less energy than old halogen downlights. It might not be the first thing buyers think about, but being able to say your home has LED lighting throughout is a genuine selling point.

3. Colour changing

Many LED fittings now offer colour-changing settings, letting you switch between warm and cool white light. Which colour is best largely comes down to personal preference.

When selling, we suggest setting your lights to the coolest, whitest setting – it looks clean and works well in photos. For everyday living, many people prefer a warmer setting that’s easier to relax under at the end of the day.
