3 Steps To Make Your Home More Valuable

Homeowners are always on the lookout for something that will increase the value of their home and make it more marketable down the road. This may be because you plan on selling the home in the very near future, or you want to be on the safe side and keep your home updated and in selling condition at a moments notice. If this is the case, there are three easy steps that you can take to increase the value of your home and make it more enjoyable. Investing in these home improvements can pay off significantly in the long run.

Many home buyers today are looking for an over-the-top master bath. To achieve this look you must pay close attention to what is very popular. At the current time is very popular to install vessel sinks and large tile floors which match tiled shower enclosures. To really complete this look you should also consider installing a frameless bypass shower door. These all glass shower doors will allow the viewer a glimpse into the shower which will make the entire bathroom look bigger and tie the tiles together.

Today’s picky home buyers are also looking for a nice roomy kitchen. To help increase the value of your kitchen you must make sure that all the kitchen hardware matches. Pantry door handles should match the cabinet knobs and any other fixtures in the kitchen. This attention to detail will tie the entire kitchen together and will be more pleasing to the eyes. Also make sure all the appliances are the same color. Do not install a stainless steel stove next to a white refrigerator. This can make for some very odd looks.

Another great way to add value to your home is to tidy up the garage. Investing in garage organizers are a terrific option for the frugal home-owner. These organizers are very affordable and can take a garage from looking like a cluttered disaster to a huge asset of the home. When home buyers come into a well organized space it allows them to envision all of the possibilities that that space could offer them. This is obviously great for the seller.  

Finally, the entryway of a home is often overlooked. This is always the first impression on a visitor when they enter your home. Many people will have no transition. Living room carpet often goes straight to the door. You should at least cut a 4x4 section in front of the door and tile it to create a break in the flooring. A tiled entryway will also be much easier to keep clean. If you have a hard surface that looks dated consider investing in a home floor buffer, this can make your flooring sparkle like new. The front of entry doors often receives the most abuse in the house. By maintaining this section of flooring you can keep your home looking great.
