Here are just a few low-cost improvements (outdoor and indoor) that can really make a difference and help you sell your house at a higher price:
Outdoor Improvements:
You’ll also want to pay close attention to your home’s curb appeal. Remember, that first impressions count!
- Painting – While painting is not inexpensive, it is the best way to improve the appearance of your home.
- Replace The Front Door – If your front door is in poor condition, either paint the door, or replace it. You can also install quality decorative features (doorknobs, lock, knocker) to dress up the door.
- Repair Screens – Repair any screens. Your local hardware will do this for about $15 per screen, or you can do it yourself.
- Patch Holes In Walkways – Concrete patching costs less than $10 gal.
- Reseal Your Driveway – Repave your driveway if it needs it.
Indoor Improvements:
The best way to add to your home’s value is to make sure your house is “sparkling” clean…so it shines!
- Replace Worn Carpeting. You can get quality carpeting installed at about $20 square yard, a good value that will transform the look of your home.
- Painting – A new coat of paint, in neutral colors, will brighten and add value to your home at a reasonable cost to you.
