Redesign for Resale Value: Affordable Updates to Boost Home Appeal
Are you looking to put your home on the market soon? Making a few strategic design updates can increase your home’s “curb appeal” and resale potential. The good news is you don’t have to break the bank to give your property a fresh new look that appeals to buyers.
Follow our budget-friendly tips for refreshing your home before listing:
Cosmetic Kitchen Updates
The kitchen is one of the most valuable rooms in terms of boosting home value. Painting dated cabinets in a modern neutral tone is an affordable upgrade. Replace old hardware with modern brushed metals. Update your faucet and light fixtures. Peel-and-stick backsplash tiles are an easy DIY.
Refresh Dated Bathrooms
Swap outdated shower curtains for shower doors. Replace old linoleum floors with stone-look vinyl tiles. Update to a contemporary vanity light. Add a fresh coat of paint in light, airy hues.
Enhance Curb Appeal
Power wash exterior surfaces and paint or stain finishes in attractive colors. Plant bright flowers and trim bushes. Add decorative pots and welcome mats. Paint or replace the front door.
Stage it Like a Model
De-clutter surfaces and remove excess furniture for a roomy, show-ready feel. Use stylish, coordinating pillows, throws and accent pieces. Showcase features like the fireplace.
Update Flooring
Shop discount home improvement stores for affordable laminate flooring to refresh dated carpet or tile. Area rugs also help update worn floors on a budget.
Smart Lighting
Increase brightness with energy-efficient LED bulbs in all fixtures. Dimmer switches create a flattering ambiance. Stylish lamps complement overhead lighting.
