(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 05, 2013 ) Austin TX – The Austin Texas Handyman joins area homeowners in their efforts to make their home more desirable in today’s market. He explains to his customers that in a “buyers market” it is important that their home stand out form the oversaturated inventory.
According to Hollis Sheppard, owner of HandyPro Handyman Service (http://handypro.com/TX_Austin-Home.html) one of the largest impacts on a home is interior and exterior painting. To repeat a quote by a real estate professional, “paint is worth $20 in the can and $1,000 on the wall.” Fresh paint is one of the least expensive, but most effective home improvement tasks that can help make a seller’s home more competitive.
Curb appeal is especially vital when selling a home. Keeping the lawn mowed, bushes trimmed and flower beds clean helps make a home more inviting to buyers. A littered and overgrown yard will turn people away, leaving the impression that the inside doesnÂ’t look any better.
Additional home improvement tips from the local handyman include:
• Paint or replace the front door – The door is like a tie on a suit, which means that it is a focal point on a home and perceived to reflect the general condition of the property.
• Remove dingy wallpaper – replace it or repaint the room for a fresh, new look
• Fix drippy faucets and showerheads
• Remove clutter – A well organized home shows pride of ownership and makes the home appear larger and roomier, where a cluttered home looks small and cramped.
With some careful planning and attention to detail, home sellers can give their property the extra edge to stand out, sell faster and for more money. Making the home more attractive also helps in the negotiating process, giving buyers less room to talk the price down.
