When making renovations or improvements to your home, deciding which projects to take on is incredibly important. Many times, sellers make the mistake of renovating their homes to match their specific styles and likings. This doesn’t always translate well when we list their property on the market. Here are my top seven mistakes to look out for:

1.    Too much wallpaper

2.    Lavish lighting fixtures

3.    Textured wall coverings

4.    The wrong flooring

5.    Too much carpet in high-traffic areas

6.    Bold wall colors

7.    Swimming pools/hot tubs

While some of these improvements may suit your tastes, it’s important to appeal to a wide variety of buyers by keeping the paint, flooring, and décor of your home relatively neutral.  

When painting or renovating, keep all colors neutral.

If you have any other questions about which improvements will benefit your home or anything else related to real estate in our area, give me a call or send me an email. I’d be happy to point you in the right direction.
