Small Changes that Make a Big Impact and Help You Sell Your Natick Home Faster

These quick and easy changes can make a big impact on how your home looks.

Sometimes when we consider making changes to a home to help it sell faster when listed on the Natick real estate market, we think we have to make big changes. Bigger, major projects can make a very good impact on your home, but smaller changes can also help you upgrade certain areas and sell it faster.

Paint the Walls

Adding a fresh coat of paint is a very simple way to make a big impact. Consider painting your walls a fresh, neutral tone so that it will complement any style and so that more buyers will be able to envision their own décor in the home.

Install New Doorknobs, Cupboard Knobs and Drawer Pulls

While it is nice to be able to install new cupboards, counters and doors, that isn’t always possible. You can give these features a fresh look by adding new doorknobs, cupboard knobs and drawer pulls. This simple change can update a space and, depending on the style of hardware you choose, make it look more modern.

Recaulk and Repair Tiles in the Bathroom

Surprisingly, small things like worn out caulk and broken tiles in the bathroom can be a major turn off to buyers. In just one weekend you can recaulk around your bathroom shower, bathtub and sink and even repair or replace broken tiles to make your bathroom look like new.

Paint the Front Door

Don’t underestimate the power of a new paint color on the front door. The front door can give potential buyers a good first impression and give your home interest and character, helping it stand out. This is another change that is very simple to do, but can really pay off.

Rearrange the Furniture

Something as simple as rearranging your furniture can make your home look bigger, more inviting, cozier and more stylish. It is easy to get stuck in a rut, but getting creative with furniture arrangements can make your home more attractive to buyers.

Pull furniture away from walls, make grouped seating arrangements and use the layout of furniture to create small spaces within a room, like a reading nook or home office. Don’t forget you can also pull furniture from other rooms to give a space a new look.

Add Some Greenery or Flowers

Plants have a way of breathing new life into a home and making rooms look fresh. Add plants throughout your home and even change them out to match the season. Think vases, potted plants, hanging plants, herb gardens and any other means of bringing the outdoors inside your home.

As you prepare to list your home, consider taking on some of these projects that may seem small, but that can have a big impact on how your home looks and how many offers it attracts. You can find out more about preparing your home for listing on the Christine Norcross & Partners website.
