Are you trying to sell your house? If so, I’d like to offer some advise. Yes the sellers and buyers market is hot right now so pay attention.
If you want to get a contract with full asking price offer, make sure all exterior repairs are complete and think about getting outside the box with a little color..make a statement to the outside onlooker. This will bring them inside to look at it. See attached before and after pics.
Once inside, people want to see clean, neutral walls to enable them to visualize the space with their own design color scheme. Popular choices for 2020 are agreeable gray and Kilim beige. Take the time to touch up paint or caulk around wet areas like kitchen and bath and laundry areas.
If your kitchen and bath need updating, consider doing this right away as it can be a crucial selling point with maximum effectiveness. Lastly, flooring. If the carpets are in good shape, have them cleaned professionally. If they are worn but clean, consider giving a carpet allowance in negotiations to avoid having to pay out of pocket for new carpet.
