From improving saleability to refreshing your home, here are some simple and affordable ideas to help get you started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Painting<\/strong>: One of the easiest ways to spruce up your home for a refreshed vibe or sale is to add a new coat of paint! While it is a relatively simple task for a new homeowner to take on, you might be surprised at how many people will pass on a house because they are not a fan of the paint colors or the flooring. A fresh coat of paint \u2013 especially more neutral colors such as beige, cream, light grays, and soft blues or greens \u2013 can do wonders to make a home feel appealing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Light Fixtures<\/strong>: I don\u2019t know about you, but I haven\u2019t taken a good look at my light fixtures in a while. However, potential buyers will! Light fixtures are another low-cost and relatively easy improvement you can make to your home. Upgrading to newer styles and ensuring they are clean, with fresh LED bulbs, will help add an extra sparkle to your home!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Update Your Hardware<\/strong>: Another overlooked aspect of a home are light switches and door handles. If your home is 20 years old, most likely your white light switch covers are not so \u201cwhite\u201d and your door handles are a little worn down. These are a cheap and easy replacement that will go a long way to boost your interior!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Swap Out Your Window Coverings:<\/strong>\u00a0Just like with a fresh coat of paint or new hardware, swapping out your window coverings is a small change that can make a big impact. Change your stale, white plastic blinds for wooden slats, or update your curtains to something fresh and vibrant!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Refinish Your Cabinets<\/strong>: The kitchen is known to be a central space in most homes, but did you know roughly 80% of homebuyers feel that it is the most important space to consider when deciding on a new home? While a full kitchen renovation may be out of the question and all-new kitchen cabinets can cost thousands, there is a third option. Refinishing or repainting your cabinets is a great alternative for breathing new life into your kitchen!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Curb Appeal<\/strong>: They say don\u2019t judge a book by its cover but, when it comes to selling your home, first impressions matter. This is where curb appeal comes in! If a potential buyer pulls up to see overgrown weeds, clogged gutters, or cracked concrete, they are already going to have a negative impression of the home and it will be harder to impress them once they are inside. Attending to landscaping and any outside maintenance needs will go a long way in making your home more appealing. A pressure wash and a new coat of exterior paint can also do wonders to give your home a facelift!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>By putting the effort into completing a few small changes around your home, you can reap big rewards when it comes time to sell \u2013 and increase your comfort in the interim!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether you\u2019re looking to sell your home this year, or just want to make some updates, I have put together six small home improvements that can make a BIG impact on your space!
