Selling a home can be a stressful and tedious process. From exterior painting to budget-friendly kitchen renovations, there are dozens of small home renovation projects you can tackle in order to ease the selling process. Here at Castle Building Company, we understand that you want your home to look its best when selling. The goal, after all, is to get it on and off the market, ensuring the highest possible bids. We can help make you home look the part.
Replacing Hardware
Hardware is one of the most inexpensive and efficient small home renovations that can update the interior of your home.
Nothing exposes the age of your home like outdated hardware. Doorknobs, cabinet handles, and light fixtures are simple and affordable components that will bring some style to your home.
Be sure to focus these improvements in the kitchen whenever possible. An updated kitchen is one of the biggest draws to potential homebuyers and is often seen as the “heart” of the house.
Fix Your Flooring
Flooring makes a huge difference in a home. You can always tell how worn and old a home is by the state of the floor.
Replacing damaged floorboards or completely discolored carpet could seem like a time consuming and expensive project. However, these home renovations could be the difference between a few days on the market, or months on the market.
Many buyers place an emphasis on a home being ‘move in ready.’ This means that if your flooring is outdated, damaged, or poorly maintained, it may be a deterrent for buyers looking for their perfect home.
Exterior Painting
Curb appeal is a major component in selling a home quickly. Any homebuyer who has shopped the real estate knows that sprucing up the exterior of a home is a major key to selling quickly. This isn’t only limited to landscaping and pressure washing.
A fresh coat of paint can take your home from drab to fab and increase the selling price dramatically. When painting an exterior, make sure to keep up to date with trends and neighborhood characteristics. If you choose to stick with soft neutral colors, make sure you incorporate some color in the finishing details or with landscaping choices.
Upgrade Your Home the Right Way
Ultimately, you are the best judge of the renovations you should prioritize for your home. Budget, neighborhood markets, and nearby properties are all variables to consider when preparing your home for a sale.
