There’s a lot to consider when we talk about remodelling or repairs. If you want to increase the selling price of your Ruby Hill home, or if you simply want to sell it faster, keep reading to learn which tips are good for your house!

Here is a list of the most useful home repairs to increase a Ruby Hill homes value and sell quickly:

Minor bathroom remodelling

It will cost you about $10,000 to replace your tub, tile surround, sink, vanity, toilet, floor, and fixtures. The ROI is about 102 percent, so this is definitely a repair worth considering.

Make sure to replace the caulk on your tub and other areas. This is fairly easy to do, and doesn’t take too long.

Check for even the tiniest details in your bathroom, too. Check the door hinges, check for stains on tiles, and check for any leaks.

Keep in mind that the bathroom is one of the first things a potential buyer considers when going through homes. No need for a total bathroom makeover. Cleaning and repairing should be more than enough to make your bathroom look good enough to sleep in!

Front yard

Never underestimate the power of curb appeal.

Home buyers instantly judge a house before even stepping out of the car. If they are pulling into your driveway and see dead grass, messy shrubs, and old paint on your walls, they might even drive away without saying a word!

Hire a professional landscaper to take care of your yard. Ask your neighbors who does their yard, that’s a good way to start.

An exciting idea to consider is adding a walkway. It costs very little and adds a whole new level of charm to your house. Try adding lights around the lawn, or installing fixtures on your window panes.

This part of your house is very exciting to decorate, so get the whole family involved in this process! Plus, it has an average ROI of 100%, so it’s an investment worth every penny!

Kitchen improvements

When you walk into your kitchen, does it smell funny? Maybe you’ve been putting off repairs and cleaning for too long!

Home buyers are looking for functionality and style in kitchens. It is the heart of the home, and many buyers are looking to use that space as room for entertaining. Something very popular these days is an open floor concept, one that combines dining space and kitchen space for seamless movement.

An easy kitchen fix is replacing or repainting cabinets. This adds attitude to a kitchen. Also consider updating appliances, home buyers love that!

Take a look at your sink, your windows, garbage disposal, and every little nook and cranny in your kitchen. Who knows, you might even find a missing bagel hiding behind your refrigerator!

Begin by cleaning your kitchen. People going through homes can get very picky when it comes to kitchens, as it is seen as a reflection of the owner’s habits and upkeep.

Messy, dirty, stinky kitchens mean the owners didn’t take good care of the home. On the other hand, beautiful kitchens mean the owners took good care of the property, and this can spell the difference between a successful sale and a client walking away.

Kitchen remodelling usually returns about 98.5%, so this is also an update to keep in mind when selling your Ruby Hill home!

So there you have it! Check your front yard, your bathrooms, your kitchen, and even other living spaces such as the living room, bedroom, and basement.
