According to our real estate agent it is the little changes/upgrades that one makes to a house that makes a difference in how fast a house sells and what purchase price is offered.
Fresh paint, shampooed carpets, window treatments, well placed shrubberies, modern faucets, … These are the kinds of things that one can do without great expense but can completely change the feel of a house. A nice homey ambiance can be more successfully created with a few candles and small affordable upgrades than with huge expensive mega-projects.
What advice do you have for those who want to make their home a little more special and want to do it on the cheap?
