5 Home Improvements To Help You Sell Your House

Not all home improvements are meant to be enjoyed as a homeowner as much as they’ll benefit you as a seller.

1. Bathroom Remodel.  Bathroom upgrades are probably the best investment you can make and will usually net a higher return than the investment.  New countertops, faucets, light fixtures and other simple, but essential features should be added. No need to spend lots on fancy fixtures, instead keep things neutral and classic to appeal to all types of buyer tastes.

2. Landscaping. We’re talking curb appeal here!  Your yard is the first thing people see, so any improvement will be valuable.  When deciding what upgrades to make first, start from the street curb and work your way to the front door.  Curb appeal can significantly swing a persons opinion before they even get in the door.

3. Exterior Improvements.  New siding makes a huge difference aesthetically, and even more importantly protects your home from the elements. If your home is brick or stucco make sure all cracks are patched, windows are caulked and put a fresh coat of paint on.  Putting in new energy efficient impact windows is also big for buyers here in South Florida.  Impact widows make a home feel safer and save significantly on utilities overtime.  They may even lower your insurance costs.

4. Kitchen Remodel.  A minor kitchen remodel can reap significant return on investment often recouping close to 100% of the cost.

5. Build a Deck or Patio. While these areas provide potential buyers the chance to envision themselves enjoying family cookouts and gatherings, they also offer a nice, seamless transition from the inside out.  If you have a pool make sure the deck looks great and there are no stains.  These additions can make a huge difference in the eyes of buyers who appreciate the bonus outdoor living space.
