Top 5 tips to sell your house

Why buy new when used is just as good? Building a house takes up time, money, and space and takes a long time to sell because of how much money was put into the house. Buying a used house saves money and you can make it like brand new; when people are searching for houses they're looking for nice and cheap houses. Here's a couple tips that can make your house brand new for the market.

GO NEUTRAL
Bold colors don't sell, but painting all the rooms in the home neutral gives the "new" home owners a chance to make it unique. "Painting your home has got to be up there on the chart rundown of tips because it is something we can all do," said host Clive Pearse.


DECK IT OUT
A living room which happens to be outside increases the money. People want that feeling of a house inside and out. "People are buying square footage, so tend to your backyard and make it a usable space," advises designer Toniya Nayak.

MAKE IT ALL ABOUT THE BED
The headboard draws much attention and makes the room/bed more fancy. "When a buyer walks into a master bedroom, they are expecting to see luxury, to see comfort, to see elegance," says real estate expert Bethany Souza.

COOK UP YOUR KITCHEN
Up grading your kitchen will bring more money in. The heart of the home is considered to be the kitchen, the kitchen can make or break your sale. "If you want to put money into your home before you sell, put it into the kitchen," advises real estate expert Donna Freeman of the L.A. team.

COMPLETE THE PICTURE
Finishing a room that is unfinished will bring in the money once on the market. "You're more likely to get top dollar if your house is move-in ready," says LaPorta. 


These tips will bring in the money. There are many more tips that are very helpful as well but these are just five I liked. Make sure to be resourceful when selling or buying a house. Remember why buy new when used is just as good!
