If you are getting ready to put your property on the market one of the best things you can do to help increase your properties selling value is some maintenance or upgrades to your bathrooms. In this short article we will cover a few things that you can do on a budget as well as things you have to take into consideration when making updates. Simple Touch Ups and Maintenance To Increase ValueAlmost everyone knows that kitchens and bathrooms are what really set off one property from another. A bathroom can be a relaxing oasis for many housewives and mothers to escape a hectic day. For this reason you need to pay specific attention to the bathrooms before you put your property up for sale. Surprisingly enough there are some things that you can do to help breath new life into your existing bathroom to help sell your house faster. Most people think that they have to do a complete gut and remodel. However, if you bathroom has "good bones" you will be able to save yourself a few bucks. A few of those things were covered in an article by This Old House:
Great tips, especially for being able to spend $500 or less to breath new life in to a bathroom in a house that you are getting ready to sell. However, if you do plan on replacing the toilet make sure that it is something that you feel comfortable with, or higher a professional. If a toilet is not installed correctly - well it can be a real mess and end up costing you much more! Things To Take Into Consideration For Major RemodelsYour bathroom might just be to outdated to just "put some lipstick" on to make it appealing to a potential buyer. Your bathroom may have green or pink tile from the 60's or 70's and you need to perform a major renovation before putting the property on the market. It can be a real hassle, and the last thing you want is to get it all done and not end up with a product that is NOT functional. Some things that you have to think about before starting your project was covered by Zillow in a short article:
Great tips. The last thing you want is to finish your bathroom after spending thousands of dollars on it only to find that it's hard for more than one person to use it at a time. Also choosing the wrong materials can really make things bad. Have you ever seen a bathroom that had carpet in it around the toilet and bath tub? We have and we can tell you from experience that it is GROSS! Also, your house may have hardwoods throughout, but real hardwoods won't be able to hold up against the added moisture from a tub. Now days you can find actual tile that looks like hardwood if that is the route you want to go. Summing It UpIf your bathroom isn't to far gone, or if your house is newer, say 15 years old or so - you can just do a little maintenance and have your bathroom looking new again. If however you have an ugly bathroom you will have to do a little more to get it ready to go on the market. Just remember to do some prior planning and use the right materials.
