Tips for sellers in today’s market

Sellers are you struggling to get your home under-contract?

In my experience I have had the pleasure to work with many types of clients. Some prefer fixer uppers; some prefer homes that are complete with updates. I had one client about 5 years ago that insisted she only she shown homes that were fully remolded to current popular standards. We ended up finding her version of the “perfect home”. In the last 5 years the couple have basically underwent an entire kitchen renovation, new paint through out the home, new carpet, as well as added concrete to the backyard for a hot tub pad. The wife and husband tease that they could have spent roughly $20,000 less on another home and used the extra money to update their home gradually; rather than spend more to end up updating regardless. I figure a buyer should buy what they like at the time rather than investing in something that does not truly excite them every time they think about their home! I want all my buyers to know that they are buying their version of the perfect home!

LOVE!

Kitchen Re-dos

Due to my last post on top remodeling jobs I have decided to write on top re-dos for one’s kitchen.

1. Hardware. I recently experienced the difference hardware can make on kitchen cabinets personally with my new home my husband and I are building.
2. Faucet. There are so many options now days and this truly will change the way your kitchen operates.
3. Lighting. By adding LED lights you will truly add a dramatic effect for about $40.
4. Organization. Currently, I live in a home with a very small kitchen. Fortunately, I am educated enough to know that with a little organization one can truly utilize space more effectively. I hit up IKEA and purchased a magnetic knife rack, mobile spice rack, can holders, plastic bag compartment, etc to assure that every inch of my kitchen is being put to fabulous use.
5. Countertops. This can truly update any kitchen. One could replace their current countertops with laminate for just under $1,500 compared to a granite which would cost roughly $2,500. Some sellers feel as if buyers only want granite these days and figure replacing them is too costly; but in all actuality buyers are perfectly content with laminate as long as it is in an appealing, up-to-date pattern.

Hope this helps~
