Ready to Sell!

Boost your home’s marketability with a few updates and a good realtor.

Are you ready to make the transition to a new home? Or at least take a few steps to get there? If so, you’ll need to think about selling your current property, and you’re probably hoping to get the best price possible.

Renovations can be a great value booster. The right changes appeal to buyers and help you make a great return on your investment.

Here are four ways to renovate before selling.

Fresh Paint Job.

A new coat of paint is one of the most affordable renovations, and you can even do it yourself. Uplifting colours, like taupe or soft teal, can make a room look brighter. The more neutral the area, the easier it is for buyers to picture themselves living there.

Countertops And Light Fixtures.

If you want to make your home look new without undergoing a full remodel, updating the countertops and light fixtures can work wonders. Similar to paint colors, it’s best to stick with simple styles.

Break Even Remodel.

Did you know the kitchen and bathrooms are the most important parts of the house? To interest buyers, consider a break-even remodel in these lived-in spaces. If the cabinets and floors are outdated, try low-cost upgrades (like new hardware) so the rooms look more modern.

Market Trends.

Before deciding which renovations to make, check out the latest trends in home design. Choosing improvements based on what’s popular can help your house stand out to buyers, both online and in person.

Preparing your home to sell is easier with an experienced professional in your corner. To learn more about value-adding renovations, selling your property or to start looking for a new property, get in touch with a local Realtor who understands the market.
