Welcome to Summer! Time to shed the winter blues and increase your home's sales potential through low-cost improvements. According to Melissa Dittmann Tracey of Realtor House & Home, home sellers don't want to spend big bucks to improve their chances with today's smart buyers. Melissa writes there is a lot that sellers can do at low or even no cost. Try these tips:
1. Pack up all the extras before you sell your home. Rooms appear more spacious and inviting if they are not cluttered with too much "stuff."
2. Pick a focal point for each room (bed in bedroom or piano in music room, for example) and make that the focus of your decorating and placement.
3. Attend to details like replacing burned-out light bulbs, and putting away items you aren't using. Keep it neat and well maintained.
4. Spruce up stainless steel sinks and make them shine with baby oil and club soda according to DoItYourself.com.
5. Let the light shine in. Open blinds and clean your windows!
6. Use an area rug over lack-luster flooring to define your living area and add a touch of color.
Use your creativity. You will be surprised at the results you can achieve on a low budget. And in the mean time, you will enjoy the living spaces more until a sign is placed in the yard with "Sold."
