Are you looking to quickly sell your home? An effective way to increase the resale value of a property is by making improvements and renovations that add attractiveness, functionality, and energy efficiency. In this blog post, we’ll discuss some simple yet impactful improvements that can help get your house sold in record time!
Get quick repairs done
You won’t have time for any major renovations, so focus on quick repairs to address things that could deter potential buyers. Survey the house and take care of the easy fixes including:
– Fix all loose tiles in the bathroom or kitchen.
– Fix all loose hinges on doors or cabinets.
– Unclog or replace stuck drawer tracks.
– Repair any leaky faucets and ensure all plumbing systems work.
– Remove carpet stains or refinish hardwood floors.
Depending on how much time and money you want to spend getting the home ready, you might also want to update fixtures, buy new appliances, install new hardware on the cabinets, and give the interior a fresh coat of (neutral) paint. Source: Investopedia
Make first impression last
No matter how good the interior of your home looks, buyers have already judged your home before they walk through the door. You never have a second chance to make a first impression. It’s important to make people feel warm, welcome and safe as they approach the house. Spruce up your home’s exterior with inexpensive shrubs and brightly colored flowers. You can typically get a 100-percent return on the money you put into your home’s curb appeal. Entryways are also important. You use it as a utility space for your coat and keys. But, when you’re selling, make it welcoming by putting in a small bench, a vase of fresh-cut flowers or even some cookies. Source: HGTV
Go for the Green
With all the focus on making eco-friendly choices in our lifestyles, showcasing your home’s green features can pay off with more green in your bank account.
“Consider not just the standard solar panels or energy-efficient appliances, but things like gardens that support local flora or rainwater harvesting,” Fitzgerald says. “These features may appeal to some buyers, but they can make all the difference for the right one.” Source: TheSpruce
