Spring is here! The weather is fantastic! Taken together those two things mean it is time for spring cleanup work. What are some things that you can do cheaply that will enhance the value and look of your home? Consider these ten easy and worthwhile ideas.

1- Look at your front door. Does it need painting or possibly replacing? This one simple thing can make a huge difference in the look of your home.

2- Have you looked at your garage lately? Why not paint the walls, organize the clutter or paint the floor. Remember it is not a big storage room room but rather an addition to your home designed to garage your valuable vehicles.

3- Plant some seed or grass sprigs and add some color by planting some cheap annual flowers. This combined with a refurbished front door will make your home seem brand new.

4- Put some inexpensive wood trin around your interior windows. This simple work will add some elegance to those otherwise plain metal or vinyl windows.

5- Replace a couple of bathroom or kitchen fixtures. If you take a few minutes to check out the selection of faucets at our favorite home repair store you might be amazed at how cheap they are. Depending on your skills you might want to consider calling a plumber.

6- Pick one room in your house and paint the whole room. Just one room. You will be amazed at how you feel and how the room looks.

7- Lighting will make a huge difference in your home. Consider putting dimmers on strategic switches in your home. This simple procedure can make a wonderful difference in the ambiance of your home. Please turn off the power to that circuit before starting this job!!

8- Think about professionally cleaning the carpet or hardwood floors in your home. This is probably not as expensive as you think.

9- Rearrange two rooms in your home. Try moving the furniture, pictures, mirrors, and other items in these rooms. A look for these rooms may just give you a new attitude.

10- Forget all of the above and go play golf, go shopping or go fishing. Your spouse may not like you but you will feel better.......at least until you get home.

Please remember that if you are thinking about Lake Conroe real estate give me a call.

Have a great weekend.
