It’s not just what’s on the inside that counts. First impressions make or break a home sale and increasing your curb appeal goes a long way toward boosting that initial impression. Tend to your garden: mulch, clean up your edges, pull the weeds. Don’t have any garden? Plant a few flowers or a lower-maintenance choice like cactus!

Fixtures like sconces and chandeliers are opportunities to modernize your home and change the entire feel of your home. It’s one of the best investments to make in terms of up-front costs: you can invest very little to gain huge returns on your home value and highlight current trends. Simple, classic designs are great choices because of their mass appeal, but small pops of color or unique pieces can add lots of character if used sparingly throughout the home.
Updating your home doesn’t just apply to design – it applies to ease of use, too. Equipping your home with modern technology is a must if you’re thinking about a potential home sale… and it’s also an investment you’ll never regret making! Hi-tech appliances like smart fridges, smart TVs, sleek coffee, or espresso machines – increase your quality of daily life as well as your bottom line.
If you prioritize design above functionality, you will be leaving money on the table. Potential buyers need to have confidence in the foundations of your home or they will not be able to envision themselves living there. That means everything needs to work the way it should: faucets don’t leak, decks don’t sag… you get the idea. Check your roof, and your HVAC, and move your way down the list in search of necessary repairs.
If ‘HVAC repairs’ sound expensive, don’t be alarmed! We have a fix-now-pay-at-closing financial model, meaning updates don’t cost you a PENNY until you sell your home. Get your estimate today!
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to finish your basement… this is it. If you have a space in your home that doesn’t serve a specific purpose or function, it’s a red flag in the eyes of a buyer. Your home value will skyrocket just by clearly defining each space in your home. Convert the ‘catch-all room’ to an extra bedroom or home office and transform an unfinished basement into a family den – and then sit back and let the offers roll in.
Kitchens, without a doubt, are the heart of the home. That means that they are the first thing potential buyers look to when considering a home purchase and one of the best investments you can make to increase home value. Is it functional? Is it spacious? Is it sleek? If your kitchen is relatively contemporary, consider smaller upgrades like new hardware to set you apart. But if your kitchen is dated, in need of love, or under-functional, you should seriously consider a kitchen renovation to dramatically increase your potential profit.
A spacious, open living area is an absolute requirement in today’s real estate market. Floorplans with excessive walls and doorways inhibit a communal feeling and don’t tend to have lots of natural light, which is a huge deterrent to your home value. Consider demolishing some of the non-load-bearing walls in your home to bring fresh, vibrant energy to your living space.
If your backyard is just… a backyard… that means it’s full of potential opportunities to increase home value. A covered patio, pergola, fire pit, or an outdoor eating area are great ways to diversify your backyard experience and a huge bonus to prospective buyers. Who doesn’t want a place to roast s’mores and stargaze?
Modern homes aren’t just expected to come equipped with bathrooms that have a bathtub, a sink, and a toilet. They’re also expected to come furnished with spa-like finishes that feel luxurious, relaxing, and indulgent. That means sleek finishes, a soaking tub, and a light, airy feel. But a few delicious-smelling candles don’t hurt, either!
When considering your home’s potential, it can feel overwhelming to consider all the possible upgrades you want to do to get the most money out of your home sale. That’s why Curbio is a no-brainer for homeowners: you can maximize your offers and your profit without any money down. from curbio
