Buyers still want a move-in ready house, and they are willing to pay more for. Sellers can increase their listing price and decrease the time on market with just a few simple home improvements. But not all home improvement projects carry the same return.
“Home sellers have to look at repairs as a whole rather than a sum of parts”, says Michael Corbett, Trulia’s real estate expert. As an example, kitchen rennovations by themseves are not likely to yield a full return on investment.
Every home seller can increase the interest in the home, as well as it’s price, by increasing the curb appeal. A pristin landscape, a painted front door and clean windows can go a long way. Painting the gargage floor, painting the interior and exterior of the home (paint selection is very important), and decluttering the home are all good things to consider.
