7 Must Do DIY Projects to Improve Your Home’s Value
May 17, 2018
Are you planning on selling your home in the near future? As a homeowner, you probably know how hard this can be!
Selling a home is frustrating on its own because you will leave a place full of memories behind and the difficulty of the actual selling part does not make things any easier.
So, what can you do to increase the value of your home without having to spend a fortune on home selling costs? You can definitely do something to improve your home – and it doesn’t even have to take much of your time or your money.
Here are seven DIY projects that should do the trick.
1. Fresh Paint
Painting your home is not a huge investment, but it can make all the difference in regard to curb appeal and interior look. No one wants to see stained and dirty walls. Make your home look cleaner and fresh to boost its value.
2. Declutter
The fewer things there are in sight of the buyer, the better. Buyers won’t appreciate your clutter – they will want to envision themselves in your home and seeing all your bulky furniture and stuff won’t really help this.
3. Change the Lighting
This is not at all expensive but can make all the difference. Lighting is a huge factor in how a room or a property looks in the eye of the person who is seeing it for the first time. Add as much lighting as necessary to make every space look bright, put an accent on the best parts of your home, and add some ambient lights where it seems fitting.
4. Improve the Landscape
The outdoor is a huge part of the curb appeal. This is the first thing people will see before they enter your home, so you better focus on your landscaping before you move to the interior of the home. Throw out the garbage, fix anything that’s broken, cut the grass, and add some complementary details to make it look more attractive.
5. Perfect the Entryway
. You know that feeling when you see something and know it is the right thing, even though you haven’t seen all of it? Updating and remodeling something as simple as your front door can be what convinces the buyer that this is the house they’ve been looking for all along
6. Connect the Indoor to the Outdoor
All it takes is a retractable screen and you can make the home look and feel larger. Connect spaces to give the potential buyers an impression that your home has all the space they need, even if it doesn’t really fit the size requirements they have!
7. Take Care of the Smells
Are there any smells you don’t like in your home? Remove all the pet smells, clean out the pipes and the sinks, and add some air fresheners to appeal to the senses of the buyers.
You are done! These seven simple and inexpensive DIY projects can help you sell your home much faster and at a much higher price!
