Underestimating the power of simple home improvements or not making the right home improvements can be costly. Yet, many times the cost is well worth the return and especially with small home improvements.
Leaky Faucet – The kitchen is the hub of many homes, and this is why many buyers will want to look at the kitchen first. Simple improvements include replacing worn or broken cabinet door handles and replacing broken faucets. This will only cost a couple hundred dollars and is worth the cost.
Renovate the Master Suite – Buyers expect an amazing master suite and are more likely to buy a home with a renovated master suite. Start with a fresh coat of paint, and repair any fixtures (especially if you have a bathroom in your master bedroom).

Landscaping - Adding lush plants and seating to a patio area helps to create a mental picture for your prospective buyers. Remember, they may have been looking at houses all day long. A backyard that looks inviting makes more of an impact than you might realize.
Paint - This might seem like a basic suggestion. However, you can’t emphasize enough how much of a difference a fresh coat of paint makes. Buyers should be able to picture their things in your rooms.

Maintenance – If it needs fixed and it won’t cost much, repair it. Homes in pristine condition sell much faster than those that will require repairs down the road.
Welcome Them – It shouldn’t break the bank, but create a welcoming front entrance starting with the porch. Buyers will imagine themselves coming through that door at the end of their workday, so paint them a pretty picture.
