Enhancing property value before selling

Today, we're diving into a topic on the minds of many homeowners: how to extract the highest value when selling your home.

Imagine putting in a dollar and receiving multiple dollars in return. It sounds enticing. Well, that's exactly what we're here to explore.

Timing is Key

How do you get the most value out of your home sale? It's never too early to start this conversation, whether you're selling in three months or three years.

You can do certain things when selling a home to ensure the highest value in return. When thinking about improving the value you get from your home, it's also always early enough to start thinking about it.

About three months ago, I met with a homeowner who intends to sell their home three years from now. This house backs right up to a parkway with no buffer zone, so I recommended that they plant a buffer zone with some evergreen trees so that the home is more appealing when they sell in three years.

However, you may be less than three years ahead like these sellers, so what can you do right now?

Small Investments, Big Returns

The biggest bang for your buck you'll get from improvements is with paint and carpet. Almost 100% of our upgrades to maximize profit for sellers involve painting the home or cleaning or replacing the rug.

These two changes can instantly breathe new life into your home, making it more appealing to potential buyers. Not only do these improvements provide a visual uplift, but they also create an impression of a well-maintained and cared-for property.

Other areas where you can make upgrades include the kitchen, bathrooms, and house curb appeal. Every single home is different.

The Power of Professional Guidance

Navigating the world of home improvements can be overwhelming, but that's where professionals like us step in.

Again, it's always early enough to start thinking about this conversation. I would be happy to put you in touch with painters, contractors, or any service worker you need from my preferred list.

The best part of working with a professional like myself is that you can leverage my relationship with them, knowing they will treat you right since we send them a lot of business.

If you'd like more info about how we can help you start talking about improving your home's value or a recommendation for a contractor, call (703) 346-2776 or email Dan@greetingsvirginia.com. I'd be happy to help!
