Everyone dreams of investing in a home or business that will fetch them more money than they originally bought it for. Here’s how to roll-up your sleeves and get started.

Making the appearance of your property desirable is critical because yours will be among a long list of properties that a potential buyer will see.

So how do you make your property stand out from the pack?

Well, by implementing a few of the below affordable steps you may not only raise the appraisal value of your property – but maybe a few eyebrows too.

1. Kitchen and bathroom upgrade

The kitchen and the bathroom attract the most scrutiny from potential home buyers and can make or break a deal.

Therefore, you should consider allocating the larger chunk of your remodelling budget to these spaces.

If your budget allows for it, consider installing new modern sinks, updating the countertops and replacing old cabinets.

2. Clean

Making sure your property is clean will have an immediate return on the value of your property. This includes both the outside and the inside. Garbage, dirt, and strange odors are not attractive features.  please format   NB I took the word 4 out of the title but not out of the url

3. Give it a fresh coat of paint

Painting can make a property look and feel new. Who wouldn’t want to buy a home or business that’s ready for them to move in immediately?

However, go for neutral creams and whites that will suit most people’s preferences and avoid bold colours.

Remember that lighter shades like beige and white give the impression of spacious rooms.

4. Enhance curb appeal

The appeal of your property, when viewed from a distance, is important.

If it looks abandoned and gloomy, then it needs work to make sure it ready to greet its new owner.

You can make cosmetic improvements like trimming overgrown bushes, mowing the lawns, planting grass on bare areas and growing flowers.

5. Change Fixtures: 

Changing out a doorknob, light switch cover, cabinet handle or even a light fixture is an easy way to breathe new life into a space
