If you’re looking to sell your home, you may be considering upgrades to appeal to potential buyers. Selling your home is competitive, and you want to be sure you’re giving yourself an edge when attracting potential buyers. Before listing your home, take time to inspect your home and identify any areas that need improvement. Consider making
repairs or renovations as needed – though it may be costly, most projects will add value to your home once it’s been sold. Which
projects will pay off the most? Let’s dig in.
First Impressions Matter
You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression. When potential buyers see your house for the first time, do you want them to see old, discolored siding and outdated metal windows? Consider updating your home’s exterior with new
windows,
doors and siding. Available in a variety of styles and colors, our
vinyl windows and
siding will give your home the refresh it needs. Buyers will enjoy having a home that’s move-in ready, and you’ll appreciate the
return on investment recouped from your project: both projects offer over 70% ROI.
Upgrade Your Landscaping
A little curb appeal goes a long way when it comes to selling your home; however, it’s easy to fall behind on lawn maintenance when you’re focusing on other renovation projects. An overgrown yard or a barren lot with no landscaping won’t appeal to any visitors. Be sure to cut your grass regularly and trim any bushes and shrubs. Plant flowers or grow a garden to make your house feel like a home. If you’re not able to garden, consider purchasing potted flowers or plants to spruce up your front porch
.
Picture Yourself in the Home
Homebuyers should be able to imagine themselves living in your home. Be sure to remove any personal items including family photos or keepsakes from your living areas so your house feels less like your family home. Be sure rooms are organized and kept clean with beds made and personal items put away. Consider painting your walls a neutral color so buyers are able to personalize the home to fit their taste.
Boost Your Energy Efficiency
If you were a homebuyer, would you want to move into a house with sky-high energy bills? Consider making changes to
boost your home’s energy efficiency, like installing a programmable thermostat or purchasing Energy Star certified appliances. Replacing your old, drafty windows or your cracked siding with
energy efficient vinyl windows and siding will also reduce your home’s energy consumption. You’ll enjoy lower electric bills – and your home will get the curb appeal boost it needs.
