Here is a list of upgrades that you can make to your home that won't break the bank but will add great value. If you focus your resources in the right areas, these little changes can make a huge difference in the way your home looks -- to yourself and potential buyers.
1. Begin with the the front of the house. This is first place that you, your guest and potential buyers see. Keep the front painted and pay special attention to the door. The door handle is the first thing that potential buyers touch on your house. Consider adding a shinny door handle to your front door.
2. Dress up the front porch. Again the front of the home is one of the first places that potential buyers are going to see. By placing two large planters on either side of the front door, with a profusion of healthy plants. When you choose the plants, look for foliage colors and blooms that complement each other. Include tall plants, to give the arrangement height and shape; ground covers, to spill out of the pot and down the sides to soften the edges, and an abundance of medium-sized plants to fill in between the two and give a lush look.
3. Add a fresh coat of interior paint. One of the biggest changes you can make to a room is to change the wall color.
