While the majority of home sellers aim to avoid spending months preparing their homes for sale, their ultimate goal remains selling at the highest possible price within the shortest timeframe. If you’re contemplating selling your home in the near future, it may be worthwhile to contemplate these four straightforward methods for adding value to your property.
Add and Adjust Lighting
Buyers like light. Unless masking unattractive views, curtains should be open. Light bulbs should be replaced with the highest possible wattage.
Create Space
Home stagers know that open space makes rooms appear larger and help enhance the flow. In many cases, a straightforward solution involves rearranging furniture and eliminating unnecessary bulky pieces. Home buyers want space and storage. Declutter closets and cabinets.
Fix the Little Things
Walk through your home with your Realtor or home stager. Create a list and decide which quick fixes can and should be done without breaking the bank. Often replacing cabinet hardware (knobs) can refresh a kitchen or bath. Find a handyman here
Make it Memorable
Consider a new kitchen backsplash or just enhancing curb appeal. Sometimes accessories, such as blankets and pillows can make your rooms pop.
