3 Home Improvements That Must Be Made Before Selling Your Home

3 Home Improvements That Must Be Made Before Selling Your Home

Selling your home can be a very emotional experience, especially if you’ve lived in it for quite some time. Memories can fill every corner of the house making it difficult to leave. But despite that, there is still a practical aspect of selling, and that is getting as high a price as you can. One of the best ways to do that is to make some changes and improvements to the house before it goes on the market. Since you’re going to be leaving the house you don’t want to spend too much money. But you do want to get the highest price you can. To do that, these are the 3 most important areas to focus on home improvement according to me, Louise Suchánek. San Gabriel Valley sellers that want to work with one of the most experienced and well-respected agents in the area should call me today at (909) 730-1152. I’d love to learn more about how I can help you get the absolute best selling price for your home.

3 Things to Fix and Improve Before You Sell

To begin with, probably the most important thing you can do is work with a real estate agent like me, Louise Suchánek. San Gabriel Valley home sellers can streamline the process and take a lot of the pressure off of themselves. On top of that, making some small improvements (and a few big ones) can bump up your selling price.

1. Home Inspection – The first thing I do is walk with you through the property and give suggestions as to what needs to be fixed. During this process we will discuss things that need further inspections. If there are foundation or roofing problems, it’s going to be a big deal because the new buyer will have to fix that. Plus, these issues can sometimes influence the kind of loans buyers can get.
2. Outside – From bad landscaping to cracks in the driveway or stucco, you want the outside of your house to look good. It will show up in all the pictures of your house and will have a big impact on buyers’ first impressions.
3. Cosmetic – From the kitchen to the bathrooms to the floors, there are small (and big) things you can do to add value. Updating the fixtures and hardware, re-caulking the tub and sinks, cleaning the cabinets, or even putting down some laminate hardwood flooring, all of these things can add more value to your home.
