Real Estate Tips: Simple Fixes That Will Help Sell Your Home Faster

Having problems in selling your house? These simple fixes can improve the outer appearance of your home which can help you sell it faster. 

According to Jeremy Wacksman, Chief Marketing Officer at Zillow, it is important to ensure that the home looks best inside and outside in order for the sellers to get the best price possible for their home. To help with the curb appeal of the home, Real Simple featured some tips to help the home sell for a better price and sell at a faster rate.

The first simple thing to do is to paint the front door. This is the very first thing potential buyers see in a home. It is important to let the door showcase the home's style with a new coat of paint. A beautiful front door can completely refresh the home.

Aside from that, it is also suggested to update hardware and the lighting fixtures in the home. Even by just simply replacing street numbers, it can already provide a huge impact in the home.

Many experts also believe that it is important to look into the little details in the home. The same can be said in doorknobs and entry lighting. Another simple fix is by adding potted plants to breathe life into spaces. Having plants around the house can also make it seem that is well taken care of.

My Domaine also said that homes that have stainless steel appliances come off the market 15 percent faster than the average home. Other kitchen designs like granite countertops are also considered by many buyers. So for those who want to earn more from their sale, it is best to look into updating the kitchen in order to increase the price of the sale and ensure that it sells faster.
