 When thinking of selling you home"think like a buyer". Spring is here and For Sale signs are up. With so many homes on the market today,if a house is not in move-in condition,buyers will say,lets see another house. Lets face it, who wants to see wall dings,,ceiling stains,sloppy paint jobs,old wallpaper and most of all weird colours. A few quality upgrades such as paint, can seperate it from the others. Suggestions:remove the old paper, its a visual turn-off. The panelling from the 60's,paint it or remove it,scratches on doors and trim will raise red flags for potential buyers.Remember a good interior paint job can be a powerful selling feature. Here is another hint that I promised from a past blog. Many homeowners through my experience as a painting contractor, choose strong colours to reflect their personal and individual lifestyle. When painting for resale choose a warm neutral palette that invites the buyers personal accents and furnishings. At On A Roll Painting,"we think green".Save your sense of smell for the Spring and Summer flowers. At onaroll we are helping to preserve the planet one gallon a a time.
