leander: Kitchens can make or break a home sale
- 02/19/16 09:29 PM
Kitchens can make or break a home sale Kitchens sell homes and setting the right mood when a buyer steps into a home is most important. Homeowners remodeling their kitchen can normally get 70% to 100% back on their investment. If your home is older and the layout can’t be changed give your kitchen a makeover replacing counter-tops, hardware, fresh paint and custom decor. Remove all clutter to give your kitchen that spacious open showroom appeal. New appliances can help buyers seal the deal.
