If you’re getting ready to put your home on the market, you may want to spruce it up to sell faster. Simple touches can make a big difference in how your home looks to potential buyers. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to make a lot of changes. Listed below are some affordable home remodeling services that will make your house sell fast.
Minor Home Repairs
Now is the time to complete all those minor home repairs you’ve been putting off for years. The crooked cabinet door and the broken light switch cover that you’ve learned to live with will stick out considerably when new buyers come in. Most minor home repairs do not cost much money to complete, and you can do a lot of the work on your own. Of course, you should consult a professional for any major repairs that need to be done, but try to get your home in the best shape possible before it hits the market.
New Paint
A fresh coat of paint can take years off the age of your home. This is especially true in rooms that are not neutral colors. The goal in any home sale is to make the building look like it’s ready for new owners. If the buyers see a bunch of walls they’re going to have to paint, they will be less motivated to put in an offer. Freshen up the paint on your trim and exterior features, and your home will be prepped for the sale.
Countertop Refinishing
Countertop refinishing is a great way to remodel a kitchen or bathroom without timely demolition and costly materials. The experts here at Maryland Tub and Tile will apply a stone-like finish on the surface of your existing counters to make them look like granite or marble. This is sure to be a hit with buyers, and it will not cost you much to do. Most homeowners get all of their investment back or more when they pay for countertop refinishing for a home sale.
Tile and Bathtub Refinishing
Tile and bathtub refinishing are a lot like countertop refinishing. The coating is applied directly over your current tile and tub to cover the grout lines and transform the color of your bathrooms. Tile refinishing is much more affordable than tile replacement, and it only takes a day to complete. You can remodel your bathroom without taking too much money out of your budget.
Gutter Cleaning
The exterior of your home is the first thing people see when they come for a viewing. You may have already mowed the lawn and washed the windows, but have you looked up at your gutters? Gutter cleaning is a simple process that can make your home look significantly cleaner on the outside. You may not notice your gutters much because you are so used to seeing them, but buyers will. Cleaning your gutters will also help you see signs of damage that a roof inspector might catch during a home inspection. You can get those taken care of before the sale so you can list it with confidence.
De-Cluttering
Before an open house or home viewing, spend some time tidying up the house. Of course, this will be easier to do if you no longer live there. If you are still in the home though, you should put away as many personal items as possible. Toys, family photos, and other special touches will make your home feel more lived in – not move-in ready. You want to create a neutral canvas that people can see themselves living in. Clearing out the clutter will also help the house look larger inside, which will make it more appealing to buyers. The cleaner it is, the easier it will be to sell.
