10 Cheap and Easy Home Improvements That Will Increase the Value Before Selling

5. Hide Half the Contents of the Walk in Robe and Pantry

Keeping a tidy and neat home is absolutely key when attracting buyers to your property. Hiding your personal items in smart room-saving ways will ensure your house looks spacious and clean. There are all sorts of different ways to keep order within the pantry and walk in robe. Boxes, jars, hanging items and even colour coordinating can make all the difference when ensuring your house is attractive as possible.

6. Turn Your Spare Room into a Proper Bedroom

Using optimal space in the house brings depth and vision to new possible buyers. Having multiple options in how the house can be set up is always a win with attracting interest in your home. By giving buyers an idea of how the house can be presented will ensure interest with how the house can function to best suit their needs or wants. Plus no one wants to see your ironing pile.

7. Ditch the Clutter

Yes the clutter needs to go. Nobody wants to be maneuvering themselves around unnecessary items or try to invision buying a home when clutter gets in the way. Obstruction around the house is a big no no. For optimal interest aim to have spacious, tidy and well thought out placement of items around the houses lay out. This will boost how buyers see the home and gives them a fresh idea as to how the house will look when filled with their own personal items.

Particular areas you need to watch are the kitchen (put as many appliances away as you can!) – and the garage.

8. Repaint Any Bright Colours or Tired Looking Walls

Sticking to mutual colours around the home definitely helps with buyer’s interest. Walking in to a home with bright yellow and green walls really isn’t going to boost interest, it will bring possible worry and more work for the buyers to consider before giving an offer. Tired looking walls will bring a drab mood to the home, so aim for mutual colours and let your buyer envision which colors is best to suit them.

Lighter colours always make the space look larger and cleaner. But go too light – and it could look sterile.
