5 Essential Updates You Should Do Before Selling Your Candlewood Lake Waterfront Home

 

 

Before you show your home to buyers looking for Candlewood Lake waterfront homes for sale, it will be helpful to do some upgrades which can boost the value of your property. These updates will also make your home stand out from the rest of the competition. Here are some home improvement projects that you should do before listing your home:

Add more value to your Candlewood Lake home for sale with these 5 home improvements.

Update the bath

Next to the kitchen, bathrooms are usually the most important part of the home to update. If you have a large budget, you can purchase a new toilet seat and a new pedestal sink. Not only are they easy for homeowners to install, they can also make a huge difference in the look of the bath. You may also replace old, discolored bathroom flooring with easy-to-apply vinyl tiles or small pieces of sheet vinyl. To make your tub and shower look spotless and new, you may re-grout the tile and replace any chipped tiles.

 

Choose energy efficient appliances

Another way to add value to your home is by replacing old appliances with energy-efficient models. Use Energy Star-rated appliances because they are better for the environment and help you save money because they use less energy. Having energy efficient appliances is an advantage because most buyers often look for ways to save money when shopping for homes for sale in Candlewood Lake.

 

Create multiple seating areas

Having second or multiple seating areas can also add instant value to your home. Look indoor for free space which can be used for a formal dining setting. With the addition of an outdoor table and patio furniture, a terrace can become an instant second dining room. In addition to that, the furniture emphasizes the size of the space and creates a destination.

 

Give your front yard a makeover

Giving your front yard a facelift can boost your home’s value. Adding some color to your planters or keeping your front yard looking fresh is an inexpensive way to add curb appeal. Remember that in the case of a home sale, a book is often judged by its cover. Make sure your home’s exterior shows that you take pride in our home and in your neighbourhood. It is also a sure way to make your home stand out from the rest of waterfront homes in Candlewood Lake.

 

Update your plumbing

If you have old, rusty iron pipes, it might be time to replace the plumbing. Keep in mind that an appraiser takes the plumbing into serious consideration when assigning value to a home. Today, updating your plumbing is no longer a huge undertaking. It can now be done with PEX (basically plastic tubing) that is reliable and can be run through your walls like an extension cord which means there will be less holes and less mess.
