Ask Kathe - Your Local Realtor® DEAR KATHE, WHAT ARE SOME COST-EFFECTIVE WAYS TO INCREASE THE VALUE OF MY PROPERTY BEFORE PUTTING IT ON THE MARKET? Boosting the value of your property doesn't always require significant financial investment. There are several cost-effective strategies that can enhance your home's appeal and attract potential buyers at a low out of pocket cost. One approach is to focus on curb appeal. Simple yet impactful improvements such as freshening up the exterior paint (particularly the front door). mowing the lawn, trimming bushes, weeding your landscaping beds and adding potted plants or flowers can instantly elevate the first impression of your property. A well-maintained and inviting exterior not only attracts buyers but also sets the tone for the rest of the home tour. Another cost-effective way to increase the value of your property is by making small changes to modernize its design aesthetic Up-grading key features such as lighting fixtures, faucets, and cabinet hardware can give your home a modern and refreshed look without breaking the bank.
