Do you Need Home Repairs before you Sell your House?

Help me get my home ready for sale! There are tons of home repairs you could do to improve the overall appeal of the home you are trying to sell. It is important to remember what areas of your home are in urgent need of repair, then prioritize them so that you can achieve the greatest return to the overall marketability of your home. There are both the minor and major repair works to be done:

Minor Repairs

Based on our experience of performing interior works for the past decade, we know that the little minor repairs can really add to your house value. Simple touch ups like painting can boost your overall appeal to prospective buyers.

When painting, choose a neutral colour, like soft grey or lily white. A more neutral colour backdrop helps people focus on your home’s best features for eg. TV feature wall, lightings and false ceiling. Paint only the key areas inside your homes.

Polishing floor surfaces like marble and parquet can offer great value as well since replacing such floor surfaces cost thousands of dollars. It is also smart to get rid of any signs of cigarette burns or pet fur by thoroughly vacuuming and deodorizing.

Another quick way to improve the way your home looks is to change to more trendy light fixtures to create “move-in ready” impression of your homes.

Major Repairs

Other major repairs may include repairing roof. However, unless it is in dire need of repair, chances are no one is going to offer you a fair price if it remains unfixed. So, if you have any major work to do on your home’s structure, it is best to get them done before putting this list

together.
