5 Tips to Help Up Your Denver Home Value
Selling a house in Denver can be a process. But if you’re thinking about trying to sell your Denver home in the next few years, there are some projects both big and small that you can work on to both increase your home’s value, and to make it stand out more to possible buyers.
We’ve collected some of the best ways to up your Denver home resale value.
Install New Flooring
“New flooring” is one of the most common features on home listings for a reason. Regardless what kind of floors they are, from wood to vinyl to carpet, new floors increase your home’s appeal during a walkthrough and can help a home sell quickly.
If you’re trying to add some interest to your home listing, try installing some less expensive berber carpet or LVT flooring that can make a big impression without breaking the bank. If you’re comfortable in your home at the moment but you know that you’ll sell it someday, think about putting in hardwood flooring or natural tile, which lasts a lifetime and can make a great impact on your resale value.
Rethink Your Lighting
When thinking about lighting, most homeowners immediately think about light fixtures. Although installing versatile or stylish light fixtures like track lighting or responsive LED lighting is a good idea, remember to pay attention to how you can manipulate natural light in your home.
Making use of natural light can make your space seem more spacious, brighter, and more comfortable. Besides, you’re more likely to have a potential buyer tour during the day, when natural light will be more important than indoor lighting.
Think about putting in window treatments that let your windows get the most out of natural light. Plantation shutters in Denver are a perfect choice, as they give you a lot of freedom in the angle that the light pours in.
Replace The Little Things
Installing shiny new appliances, millwork, and other big jobs might help a listing stand out, but you may get a lot more bang for your buck by focusing on your home’s small details.
Put in new faucets in the bathroom and kitchen. Put in newer handles and knobs for all of your cabinets and drawers. Restain your staircase banister and handrails. Put in new covers for your floor and ceiling vents. Any of these low-cost fixes can make a big visual impact at a fraction of the cost of bigger projects.
Maximize Storage Space
“Space” is the big word here. All the closets, number of rooms, and square footage in the world won’t mean anything to potential buyers if they’re filled with all your belongings.
Make room in your closets by using space-saving racks, clear out rooms leaving only the bare essentials, and move nonessential furniture or belongings into a storage unit or into your new space.
Control The Temperature
If possible buyers are too hot or cold while walking through your home, there’s not a good chance that they remember it fondly when coming to a decision. The simplest way to make sure guests are comfortable is to crank your thermostat – don’t be afraid to make your air conditioner put in work during the summer or the heater in winter.
You can lessen the stress on both you and your HVAC system by insulating your home. An energy-efficient window treatment such as Polywood® plantation shutters will help reduce heat transfer through the glass by half, making climate control in your home a breeze.
