If you are looking to sell your home in Metro Vancouver, there are some home improvements tips that can help you up-sell your home and create a more desirable environment for buyers to want to snap up your space.

With so many new developments in the Lower Mainland, it is making it more difficult for homeowners with aging homes to sell their house, but by implementing even just one of the below tips – you might just have buyers bidding on your Vancouver area property in no time.

Kitchens - A Hot Selling Item

Kitchens are perhaps the most sellable space in your home, so by creating an inviting kitchen with sleek stainless steel appliances, upgraded granite countertops and modern custom cabinetry, it can refresh your home in ways most other rooms just don’t have the ability to do, and offer selling features homebuyers are looking to buy into.

Better Your Bathroom

Bathrooms are usually the second most sellable room in your home, so by upgrading a cluttered sink space with perhaps a small pedestal sink, or exchanging your pink tub and toilet for a simple white version - it can mean the difference between your home sitting on the market for months or having it sold in weeks.

Hardware, Lighting and Flooring Fixes

Hardware such a doorknobs, closet knobs and cupboard knobs are simple purchases and an inexpensive and easy way to upgrade and immediately update your home with ease.

As well, lighting fixtures are another simple purchase that can take a room from drab to “fab” with a simple flick of the switch.

Last but certainly not least – flooring. By replacing your shag rug with the clean look of faux wood flooring, you will immediately make you home appear more open, offer a cleaner appeal, and bring your circa 1980 space into the current era.

These small home improvement tips can make a huge difference in both selling your space quickly, as well as having the opportunity to up-sell your space for a selling price you wish to acquire.

We hope these home improvement ideas have helped you better understand what features are selling in homes in Surrey, Langley and their bordering neighbourhoods, and look forward to helping you take your house off the market with a quick and profitable sale
