Adding Value: Real Estate Market Insights

In 2011 bathrooms became more important to home buyers than kitchens. Bathroom design now carries more weight in the minds of prospective home buyers compared to kitchen design when deciding which home to purchase.  But not to worry! There are a few easy and budget-friendly solutions that can help you get your home off the market more quickly.

Resurfacing and recaulking your bathtub and/or shower as well as re-grouting your tile are just a few of Realtor.com’s cost-effective suggestions for sprucing up your home this selling season. They’re sure to refresh the look of your bathroom at a significantly lower cost than replacing your tub or tile. Other minor, inexpensive upgrades include replacing fixtures and repainting the walls to give the space a new look. These small changes can make all the difference in pulling together a new look for your bathroom, no matter your taste.

Bathrooms may now be the number one priority, but kitchen appeal is still important! Updated appliances, fixtures, countertops and cabinets are sure to boost your home’s value and quickly capture the hearts of prospective buyers. And just like in your bathroom, resurfacing is a great option for updating your kitchen. Get the look and feel of granite countertops at a fraction of the cost by opting for a custom stone accent finish sprayed onto your existing countertop. This is a budget-friendly way to update the look of your kitchen surfaces and round out the other upgrades you do around the kitchen.  You’ll have a complete, modern look that will add value and appeal and still leave you with a durable surface and money in the bank.

Marie Leonard, home improvement expert and author of Marie’s Home Improvement Guide says, “As far as getting a return on your investment, the best money is in upgrading or remodeling your bathroom or kitchen… All the realtors will tell people that you have the greatest chance of getting your money back on those two” (Yahoo! Homes).
