Adding Value to Your Home
Simple Things to Remember in Remodeling
Certain things are worth more in resale than
others. While there's never a guarantee,
knowing which areas to pursue will make
your remodeling dollars stretch farther.
Major Areas to Focus on:
- Kitchens
- Baths
- Exterior
- Landscaping
Most Value for the Dollar Items:
- Paint
- Knobs and hardware
- Vents and cold air return covers
- Countertops
- Mulch and landscaping rocks
While most the items from this list are
inexpensive, the perception of even older
homes with these items replaced can
make the difference between "for sale" and "sold".
More Expensive but Adds Value
- Cabinetry
- Flooring
- Concrete
- Windows
- Decking
- Siding
While many of these can be great additions
they don't guarantee you'll see return
on your money.
Always consult a qualified
professional before setting out on major fixes.
Our Pre-Listing Program Includes:
- On site evaluation
- Advice on what could be changed
to increase sellability
- Checklist of items to prepare
- Fair price quote for installation of
any suggested items
- Flat fee
The goal of this program is to help homeowners
sell property with the least trouble,
and for as much money as possible.
As a part of the package we will make known
of any obvious issues a home inspector will
make mention of and possible solutions for them.
(This is NOT the same as having a liscenced
home inspector into your home but gives you
a chance to fix problems before inspection) |
