"What are ways to add value to your home?"
So I thought I would share my feedback just in case it would be helpful to anyone else.
Here are some of my top ideas:
1. Curb appeal--you have 7-10 sec. to make a first impression-make it count. Lots of color in lanscaping--no yard ornaments
2. Hit the senses--smells good, looks good, sounds good
3. De-clutter as much as you can. You are moving--pack it up and get it out.
Did you know that the kitchen, master bath and storage can be your biggest money makers?
Hope it helps...looking forward to more questions
Terry
