Primed 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 colors, 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 If the cabinets and floors are outdated, try low-cost upgrades (like new hardware) so the rooms look more modern.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, checkout 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 in Beaufort County, get in touch with a local Realtor who understands the market.
