Making Interior Improvements
While immediate external appeal can get a buyer’s attention, it’s the interior of your home that will make or break a sale. So take a minute and look at the rooms in your home as if you were a prospective buyer and note any defects. Here are a few repairs and quick fixes that can get you closer to making the sale:
- Cleaning every room in the house and removing all clutter. This alone will make your house appear bigger and brighter.
- Removing the less frequently used, even daily used items from kitchen counters, closets, and attics, making these areas much more inviting.
- If necessary, repainting dingy, soiled or strongly coloured walls with a neutral shade of paint, such as off-white or beige. The same neutral scheme can be applied to carpets and linoleum.
- Checking for cracks, leaks and signs of dampness in the attic and cellar.
- Repairing cracks, holes or damage to plaster, plasterboard, wallpaper, paint, and tiles.
- Replacing broken or cracked windowpanes, moldings, and other woodwork.
- Inspecting and repairing the plumbing, heating and alarm systems.
- Repairing dripping taps and showerheads.
- Buying showy new towels for the bathroom, to be brought out only when prospective buyers are on the way.
- Sprucing up a kitchen in need of more major redesigning by investing in new cabinet handles, new curtains, or a coat of neutral paint.
