Buying a home is an exciting time in one's life. Making the smart move of choosing a REALTOR® is your first step to ensuring that your new home and community meets your needs. Our services and experience range from financial aid to helping you find the right home
The following should help you answer every seller's most important question: should it stay or should it go?
A little help from your Realtor®
If you can't afford to professionally stage your home, ask a Better Homes and Gardens® Real Estate sales associate to give you sage remodeling ideas that will help increase the appeal of your home to potential buyers. Take their advice and get rid of any furniture or décor that's inconsistent or unnecessary in the home.
First impressions
Coat racks are a staple in the entrance of almost every home. But to make the entranceway feel larger, make use of existing closet space and neatly put away hats, shoes, coats and jackets inside. You want buyers to have a good look when they walk in - just not at your collection of running shoes.
Closets are for clothes, not clutter
Unfortunately, you won't be able to hide your "clutter" skeletons in the closet, as potential buyers tend to peer into every possible space. Tackle one closet at a time and ask yourself why you're holding onto something. If it's only to sell in a garage sale, save yourself the trouble and donate any unwanted items to your local charity. You'll be giving others stuff they can use and making your home appear more inviting in the process.
Consider removing unnecessary furniture
Take a look through every room in the home. Why is the furniture set up the way it is? If another way makes more sense, creates more light and makes the room feel and look better, consider room remodeling while showing your home. The idea is to maximize space where possible. So if an item isn't in use, box it up and get it ready for moving day. Alternatively, consider short-term storage facilities where you can temporarily move items you have yet to determine what to do with.
Books, newspapers, magazines and the mail
We all love getting our favorite magazine in the mail, but after years of living in a home, those magazines and Sunday Times crosswords can add up. Homebuyers don't want to see big stacks of magazines around your house. Before showing your home, remove your magazines and newspapers. Be sure to store your personal mail in your files. Take your collection of unwanted books to a used bookstore and your extra newspapers and magazines to be recycled. Getting rid of the paper around your office, living room and entranceway will make the home feel cleaner.
Before you start showing your home, have a final walk through with your Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate sales associate. They are one of best assets in determining your decluttering progress and will be able to judge when your home is ready for potential buyers. By motivating buyers to reach a decision sooner, you'll attract offers on your home quicker than you think.
Are you looking to increase the value of your home while staying within your budget? Full remodels, even for one room, can cost many thousands of dollars, and while the cost may be worth it if you're planning on staying put, most remodeling projects increase your home's value by at most 80 or 90 cents for every dollar you invest. Thus, if you're looking to sell your home right away, or if you're buying and selling a home for profit, you want to keep your improvements simple and cheap. Here's how.
Steps
Spruce up the yard. Get rid of trash and yard waste. Keep your lawn in good condition and mow it. This includes using a weed whacker to get in the tight corners and along the edges of sidewalks and the house. Trim the hedges, get rid of weeds, and mulch the flower beds. If you don't have much to work with, plant some flowers or install some landscaping appropriate for your home and climate.
Eliminate clutter inside the home. If you're going to be showing the house to potential buyers, get the house organized and get rid of clutter or put it in storage. A nice, tidy house will seem larger and more elegant.
Wash walls and windows. It's a lot cheaper to wash walls or siding than to repaint or replace siding, and many times a good cleaning will make your home's finishes look good as new. Pressure-wash your home's exterior, and wash interior walls. Clean your windows so that you can't tell they're there.
Add a fresh coat of interior paint. Sometimes you just really need to repaint, but you can do it yourself relatively cheaply on interior walls. First, patch up any holes, no matter how small. To get a silky smooth finish, apply a coat of primer. After the primer dries, lightly sand it with a fine grit sandpaper (220 grit). Apply the first coat of latex paint, and then lightly sand that layer also. Wipe the walls down with a damp cloth after each sanding session. Then apply the final coat of latex paint.
Put up fresh curtains and blinds. Blinds don't cost much, and curtains can be cheap also. Over time, the sun fades the colors from your blinds and curtains, so new ones will make a better impression than old ones.
Clean up the carpet. You can shampoo or steam clean your carpets, or you can use a dry cleaning system (available from various sources, such as Oreck), which requires no water or steamer rentals, and which dries instantly and kills virtually all mold and bacteria. Apply according to the manufacturer's instructions, and then vacuum. If all else fails, get a professional to do the carpets for you. You'd be surprised how much better your carpet will look after a good cleaning.
Install modern light switches and outlets. Some of the new style switches can be easily installed using the wires already running to the old switches. Just be sure to turn off the power to the room or entire house before doing any work. The new outlets look nice, and give the impression that the electrical wiring in the house is newer than it really is. Dimmer switches are especially desirable, although this can be illegal if the outlets are of three prong type while the wiring is two prong. It also could lead to trouble if the buyer's home inspectors catches on.
Refinish kitchen cabinets. Outdated or worn cabinets can bring the whole kitchen down, but refinishing them is relatively cheap and easy to do. If you have a dark or small kitchen, make it look larger and brighter by using a lighter finish on the cabinets.
Up the wattage of your light bulbs to make things even brighter. Just make sure you don't exceed the maximum specification for lamps and other lights. (You could use compact florescent light bulbs in order to make the room brighter without getting new fixtures, plus they save electricity meaning they save you money.)
Get a professional floor plan company to check on your home's square footage, which is sometimes higher what your county assessor has recorded. Because homes sell for hundreds of dollars per square foot, even a small increase will more than pay for the service (typically a few hundred dollars). You'll be able to list your home for more money, but at the same price per square foot.
Wood Trim and Cornicing are a cheap and easy do it yourself idea that can add tons of "WOW" factor to the look of your home. Simple ceiling trim and armchair railing are the easiest and most typical upgrades found in newer homes. To make an even bolder statement, paint the walls a neutral, flat color and paint the trim a high gloss white.
