Is it time to sell your house? Whether it’s changing a house or trying to get a good price before a move, there are a few ways to gain value through a kitchen or bathroom remodel. Outdated kitchen and bathroom styles are the fastest way to make a home feel older and more run-down. Here are some ideas to get started with your renovations.
Personalized design
A made-to-order design makes the most sense when it comes to getting the most money for your home. Custom-made bathrooms are noticeable and make a difference in price. A real estate agent or home buyer will be able to tell if the tiles and fixtures were simply placed in the space or if they were made for the space. Avoid outrageous designs that may make classic home buyers uncomfortable. You never want a space to only attract one particular type of style. Exquisite masonry with classics like natural stone, granite, slate, and travertine are always a good idea.
Flat
Flooring is important in a bathroom and linoleum is outside. Linoleum in the bathroom or kitchen can make an entire home look dated, ugly, and dirty. Hardwood can take a real beating in these spaces and look old and worn quickly, even after restoring. The best idea is to lay ceramic or porcelain tiles or natural stone floors. These will hold up a lot of foot traffic, clean up well, and always look good. They appeal to a modern home design and can be combined with just about anything a home buyer wants to decorate with.
Bath
Bathrooms can be purely conventional or they can be home spas and relaxation areas. One way to create a more elegant and expensive feel is to create a separate bathtub and bathroom. A hot tub can be a place to relax and separate yourself from the conventional use of a shower. Travertine or marble are great custom tiling jobs for a custom bathtub. Mosaics work well to add a decorative touch to the bathroom wall. If the home buyer finds your space relaxing, they will be excited to buy it. Make the bathroom, especially the master bathroom, a place where they want to be.
Kitchen countertops
As with the floors, the linoleum is removed. A granite kitchen countertop is your best option. It looks good and is extremely practical. Choose a neutral color that can match whatever style your homebuyer may have. Make sure to match cabinets, hardware, and flooring. Replace old cabinet hardware to match your new counters. The kitchen is the most used room in the house. Make it as modern, comfortable and conventional as possible.
Selling your home can be an overwhelming process. Get started with these bathroom and kitchen tips to increase the value of your home. You can always add some of your personal style and ideas. With the right plans, rocks, and accessories, you can easily get the most bang for your buck.
