When you’re looking to move, you want to sell your home quickly AND get a good price for it – but that’s easier said than done! Here are some tips from our cash house buyers in Dallas on small, affordable projects that make a big difference. We also have a great eBook guide on how to sell your home fast that you can download for free!
Style Your Bathrooms and Kitchens
Bathrooms and kitchens can make or break a sale, so it’s worthwhile putting in some time and effort to show these spaces off at their best. But it doesn’t mean you have to do an expensive remodel to get the latest look (especially since you won’t usually increase your home’s value quite enough to recoup the expense). Start by giving these spaces a really solid deep clean to remove the stains and dullness that tend to happen over time. Then implement some simple upgrades – a new shower curtain, a coat of paint, good light fixtures, an attractive mirror and pretty hand towels can really transform a place. Store all the clutter away and aim for a look you’ve seen in your favorite hotel, spa or on Pinterest.
For your kitchen, start with a deep clean and clear out all the clutter. You want your space to feel fresh, impersonal and as spacious as possible. Again, a coat of paint is an easy and has a really positive effect on the space, but you can also upgrade the blinds or curtains at the windows, add pretty pots of herbs, and place a pretty stand with fresh cookies on the counter. If you want a bigger project that’s still pretty affordable, you can wrap or paint your cupboards too or replace the backsplash with trendy tiles.
Upgrade Your Window Treatments
Ripped, faded or outdated window treatments do your home no favors when it comes to selling it at a good price. They catch the eye of potential buyers and detract from the views outside your home. When upgrading your window treatments, go simple with cut-to-measure blinds and premade curtains. Choose natural materials in light, neutral colors.
Show Off Your Home’s Best Features
Take an objective look at your home and list its best features – the aspects of the property that made you want to buy this home yourself – and then find ways to really make these features pop. If you have wooden flooring, take up all your rugs and old carpet and expose the wood. If you have a beautiful porch or deck, sand it down and refinish it, and set it up as an attractive outdoor space using furnishings and plants from around your home. If you have a nice large backyard, make sure it is mowed, neat and that the trees are well-kept (don’t cut them down unless an arborist recommends it – mature trees are a real winner for selling a property!).
Paint, Paint, Paint
Painting is one of the easiest and most affordable projects you can do in a short amount of time. If your home has a lot of bright, dark or bold colors, painting can create a fresh, light and impersonal space where buyers can envision themselves living. Go for a light, neutral palate (soft greys and sand colors are a lovely alternative to plain white) to make your space look as spacious and welcoming as possible. In just a weekend or two, you can transform the inside of your home into something that buyers will love.
And a final tip – when you’ve finished painting, don’t re-hang your personal photographs and art. Instead, go for a minimalist look and pack as much personal stuff away as possible. You want to create a space that buyers can imagine themselves living, and personal items tend to make home viewers feel overwhelmed, like they are intruding, and distract from important features like the size of the room and its architectural features.
