How to Increase Your Home’s Value

Putting your house on the market? Before you do, make sure you price it right! Getting the best price for your home is about making a list of what needs to be upgraded. Once you do, take this list and apply it:

Outdoors
First impressions are lasting impressions. That means even the most basic outdoor maintenance can be significant when it comes to selling. Start by mowing the lawn and trimming overgrown shrubs. Apply a fresh layer of grass if needed. Take a look at your driveway and siding to determine whether or not your home needs bigger upgrades too. 

Paint
One of the quickest and most cost-effective ways to boost your home’s value is to re-paint. Whether it be old paint or bold colors, it’s best to go over that purple wall with a fresh coat of beige or any other neutral tone. This way, buyers can more easily envision themselves in the house.

Kitchen
Did you know that the kitchen is one of the most important rooms to upgrade before selling? If your kitchen is looking outdated, it might be time for a re-do. Whether that means you need new fixtures, appliances, countertops, or cabinets, the more money you put into your kitchen the more return on investment you will likely see.

Bathroom
Old tub, rusty shower head, cracked tiles? Any of these elements can turn prospective buyers away. In fact, if you’re not selling right away, it might be because you need new bathroom upgrades. So reface your tub and buy new fixtures - you’ll be surprised what a difference it can make.
