3 Affordable Ways to Increase Home Value When Looking To Sell


If you want to sell your home for a higher price, you need to make it more attractive and valuable to buyers. Here are 3 affordable ways to do that:

1. Improve Your Curb Appeal

First impressions last. The primacy effect is a psychological phenomenon that means we remember the first thing we see or experience more than the rest. Improving your curb appeal can make your home look more inviting and appealing from the outside and can leave a lasting good impression on potential buyers.

- Mow your lawn, trim your bushes, and weed your garden
- Plant some flowers or shrubs to add some color and life to your yard
- Clean your windows, doors, and siding
- Replace your front door to give your home a refresh

2. Refresh The Interior With A Fresh Coat of Paint.

Painting your walls and trim can make your home look fresh and bright. Choose neutral and light colors that appeal to most buyers, such as white, gray, or beige. Avoid bold colors that may deter any potential buyers that are looking for a "move-in-ready" home.


3. Replace Outdated Hardware and Fixtures.

Replacing your hardware and fixtures can elevate your home with very minimal labor and costs. Choose fixtures that match or complement your home's style and theme.

Main areas to focus on:
- Kitchen and bathroom cabinet hardware
- Main area light fixtures
- Outdated faucets and showerheads
