Selling Your House in a Buyer's Market
by Jon Nunan
Selling a home is a big deal, no matter the nation's economic situation, but in certain parts of the country, trying to get a good price for your home is a challenge to say the least. When selling a home in a good market, most homeowners are well aware that a little remodeling can go a long way to make their property stand out from the rest; however, pouring thousands upon thousands of dollars on a house that might be listed under what you had hoped anyway is something different all together. Here are some tips to make your home as presentable and appealing as possible while keeping costs down at the same time!
Take the Cost out of Kitchen and Bath Remodels:
Under normal circumstances, many folks depend on kitchen and bathroom
upgrades for speedier sells and a prettier price tag. Unfortunately, with today's economic uncertainty, Remodeling Magazine's average of $55, 503 for a major kitchen remodel and $15,789 for a bathroom remodel are far from affordable in many cases. It's true that kitchens and bathrooms are traditionally some of the most heavily scrutinized areas for prospective buyers, but instead of the projects suggested in a traditional remodel, these less involved jobs can enhance the space for a far smaller investment:
- Instead of replacing your sink and/or bathtub, have it resurfaced.
- Instead of replacing cabinetry, reface or paint it.
- Instead of replacing old tile counters, walls, and backsplashes with stone or laminate, have your tile re-grouted and cleaned.
Enhancing Curb Appeal Inexpensively:
First impressions are very important, and it's hard to imagine a prospective buyer going for your asking price if their first glimpse of the property is disappointing. In the past, many homeowners have installed new siding and called for professional landscaping to increase curb appeal, but each of these projects can easily run you thousands!
- Instead of replacing siding, have it professionally cleaned. If you need a fresh coat of exterior paint, consider doing some or all of the job yourself.
- Instead of hiring a professional, do your own landscaping.
Note: Always remember to make sure the front door is in good working condition!
