Quick Fixes That Pay Off Big When Selling Your Home

You don’t have to tackle expensive and time-consuming renovations to make your home sellable. Try these quick and cost-effective fixes instead.

Kitchen

  • Replace the sink faucet if you’ve had yours for more than 10 years or have poor water pressure.
  • Update old lighting fixtures that might be broken, dull or outdated.
  • Refinish or paint cabinets to freshen them up without remodeling the kitchen.
  • Add new handles and pulls to cabinets and drawers, try even just repainting the ones you already have.
  • Install a simple, inexpensive backsplash. You might consider a peel and stick backsplash, too.

Bathroom

  • Get a new toilet seat that’s comfortable and stylish if yours is starting to discolor and come off its hinges.
  • Replace the sink hardware to match your bathroom cabinet hardware. This can tie together a design well.
  • Install a new showerhead that will attract people, like a rainhead or one with multiple settings.
  • Regrout tile, and apply new caulk to give the floor a refreshed look.
  • Change the mirror if yours is too small or foggy. The bigger the mirror, the bigger the room will feel.

Closets

  • Install an organization system that maximizes the space.
  • Remove the builder-grade wire racks and replace with nicer shelving.
  • Repaint the closet door — or even replace with a trendy sliding barn door.

Exterior

  • Work on simple landscaping to make a great first impression by adding bushes along a walkway or re-mulching to keep it looking healthy.
  • Fix cracks in the walkway or driveway to keep it safe and appealing.
  • Repaint the front door, and update the door hardware. Consider matching window shutters and your door for a cohesive look.

Miscellaneous rooms

  • Rent a carpet cleaner to give your carpet some life and color back.
  • Update window treatments and make sure they’re adding height to the room instead of shortening it.
