I have met with quite a few homeowners over the years who end up making some predictable home improvements just prior to selling their home:
- repainting the kitchen
- replacing some 30 year old carpet
- refinishing the hardwood floors
- removing the wallpaper that you have wanted to replace for years
- replacing the kitchen countertops
- screening in the covered porch
- replacing some of the original, dated, light fixtures in the house
All of these are lovely improvements to make... but all of these homeowners would have enjoyed their home even more if they had made the updates or improvements five years before they sold their home... rather than five weeks before they sold their home.
So, while I know your renovation or remodel budget likely isn't infinite... if there are some changes or improvements you would likely want to make before you sell your home... and you don't plan to sell your home for at least five years... make the improvements now!
You will not only have a great home five years from now... that will be appealing to buyers... but you'll also enjoy the improved home yourself for the next five years!
If you need recommendations for professionals to help you with these projects, just let me know!
