Many of my clients ask me what they can do to spice up their home and wow potential buyers. And it's more important than ever in today's market to make sure that your home stands out from the rest. Therefore, enhancing your home's appearance will increase your home's chances for a successful sale.
Most buyers are attracted to the same things when it comes to taste in houses. Typically, consumers are attracted to large kitchens with lots of storage, open floor plans and big bright rooms.
Here are some tips I give my clients to help catch a potential buyer's eye and really wow them:
· Clear the clutter - Pack up as much of your personal belongings as possible and put them in storage. This includes taking down personal photos from the walls, also.
· Apply fresh paint - Stick to neutral colors when repainting, no bright colors.
· Go green - Install energy efficient products. This is attractive to buyers and is very popular. It also increases the value of the home.
· Add crown molding and wider baseboards - Crown molding and wide baseboards are very popular in all styles and types of homes. They are very attractive and very eye catching.
· Upgrade the flooring - Improved flooring, such as hardwood, tile or new carpet, can be the center of attraction. This will also help improve the value of your home.
· Add a deck - Just by adding a deck to your home, you add value to it. A deck is a nice feature to any home and yard. Many buyers also consider this a big plus when considering the purchase of a home.
These simple additions will definitely have potential buyers saying "wow" when they walk in the door of your home.
