What is the Cheapest Home Improvement You Can Make? Paint
In the current real estate market, sellers need to have a competitive edge.
The easiest and least costly improvement you can make to your home is to give the interior a fresh coat of paint.
Remember, the goal is to appeal to the greatest number of buyers--so no bold colors aloud.
I know many of you are disappointed but neutrals come in a variety of colors these days. There are some wonderful shades of green, gray and beige.
The quickest way to kill a sale is for a buyer to think the painting ahead is going to be an insurmountable task. By changing that bright red room to a nice neutral color, you open the possibility of selling your home quickly. And at prices of just $15 - $25 a gallon, it may be the cheapest home improvement you make.
My suggestion--if your home hasn't been painted in the last three years, invest in a few gallons of paint and get going before you put your home on the market.
The result may be the difference between selling your home quickly or having it linger on the market.
