Pre-Sale Kitchen Improvement #1: Update Your Lighting

Buyers really like light, bright kitchens, so you should do your best to create the right look before you sell. That may mean investing in a new light fixture, as well as new window treatments. Head to your favorite home improvement store to see what’s available in the lighting department. You may be surprised at how affordable (and how easy to install) new kitchen light fixtures are.

Pre-Sale Kitchen Improvement #2: Upgrade Your Appliances

If your appliances are old enough to vote, it may be time for an upgrade. Buyers love energy efficient appliances, so if yours are lacking in that department, you may also want to make a switch. However, you should certainly talk to your real estate agent before investing in new appliances, because it may not be necessary. Your real estate agent will look at several factors, including what buyers are snapping up on today’s market, to help you make the right choice.

Pre-Sale Kitchen Improvement #3: Spring for Premium Accents

You don’t have to redo your entire kitchen to upgrade its look. In fact, premium accents, such as high-end cabinet handles and drawer pulls, can make a tremendous difference. You can take it a step further by adding a sophisticated wine refrigerator, a filtered water spout or a built-in pot filler, too. Again, with any significant investment, you’ll want to talk to your real estate agent before you dive in with both feet.
