5 Fantastic Bathroom 

Ideas for You!

Hey there, Daymond here! So, you’re about to sell your home and you’re not sure whether it will pay off to remodel. You want to sell your home fast and at a good price, without investing or delaying this too much.

Listings that are in a good neighbourhood sell fast. But surely, you can’t control the location of your home. Yet, what you can control, is the value the property seems to be worth. To add value, you must make some improvements . . . nothing big or expensive, but enough to make an impact.

From our experience, here are some changes that you should take into account when you plan to put your property on the market.

The overall look

Buyers have a tendency to take into account the overall feel of the place. If it’s crowded and looks small, even if it’s not, they will be reluctant to buy. You should also refresh the paint on the walls, to give a new breath to the space. Old, dull walls aren’t very appealing at all.

Tip 1: Try to clear the space as much as possible by taking out the furniture you plan to take with you, and other items that the potential buyers might find unnecessary.

Tip 2: Be careful, while refreshing the colors on the walls is a good idea, some potential buyers might be skeptical as you try to hide imperfections. You should take before and after pictures to show clients that you painted only for aesthetics.

The kitchen

Whether big or small, kitchens tend to be the most popular place in the house. This is where people come together the most, so you have to make a good impression by showing off the assets you have. Fixing your cabinets or repainting them, cleaning the oil stains off the wall tiles, removing any stickers that might be left from your children will give the impression that they don’t have to invest too much after they buy your place. THIS IS A BIG PLUS.

Over your stove and above the countertops, the wall covering protects your wall from grease stains while you’re cooking. You might also pick an easy-to-maintain material, like tiles. Remember, tiles with flat surfaces make cleaning very easy. For optimal hygiene, you might choose a one-piece surface obtained from composite or natural stone.

Tip 3: If you’re handy around the house, you can repaint the old tiles you have with a special paint specially made for that. It doesn’t cost much, and it doesn’t take much to dry and it will look great! If the potential buyers afterwards change it completely, at least you will not have paid too much or spent too much time making it look good.

The bathroom

Even though we don’t spend as much time in the bathroom as we do in the kitchen, having a nice and tidy bathroom says a lot about the owners. To boost up your chances to quickly sell the apartment, some matching decorations and a plant, even a faux one, aside from a through cleaning, will make this space completely different.

Tip 4: You can add some extra lighting to your bathroom, to highlight certain areas, with light fixtures. If the spot you plan to put them shows the cabling too much, you could try the option of having a battery based fixture.

The small spaces, such as the pantry 

If you actually use these extra spaces available for storage, then make sure they are as clean and refreshed as possible. We wouldn’t recommend you remove any wall associated with these spaces to open the space up. Leave this choice to the buyer. They appreciate any extra space there is, but on decisions like this, it’s better to not get involved.

Tip 5: Try to reorganize the space in the pantry, by taking out the old shelves and bringing new ones instead. They should offer more space, from top to bottom, and give a new look to that small storage room.
