If you're a homeowner in Tampa, you could be sitting on thousands of
dollars that are waiting to be spent. People love living in The Sunshine State,
and if you're in a city like Tampa, you have some much-desired
property. You may be comfortable living in your current home, and may not see
yourself moving for quite some time, but as the years pass and your life and
family change, you may be willing to go to someplace new. Don't worry about
scrambling to fix your home when you decide you want to sell it; instead, you
should add some curb appeal to your home to make it attractive to potential
buyers. If you do these small things to the outside of your home, you could
make it one of the most coveted on the block.
Make your
door memorable
Your lawn, siding, and window shutters are all an important part of your
home's overall outdoor look, but your door can actually draw more attention
than all of them combined. Your door acts as both a barrier and a passageway to
your home, and making your door stand out can be a simple way to improve
people's first impression. Adding a simple new coat of paint, or cleaning and
varnishing your old door can make a huge difference when you are trying to
sell.
Add simple
decorative elements
If you want your home to stand out from the others on your block, a few
outdoor décor elements can help. Lawn ornaments can also help improve the look
of your home, as long as you get the right kind. When some people think about
lawn ornaments, they imagine gnomes and plastic flamingos, but you don't have
to decorate your lawn with clichés. A few stones to make an alternate path to
your door, or some small stone sculptures can add some class to your yard and
create a relaxing, garden-like atmosphere that buyers will covet.
Remember, a prospective buyer just might find these guys creepy. Look for tasteful decorations that hold almost universal appeal. |
Replace your
small and old home features
Has your doorknob lost some sheen? Is your wall-mounted mailbox falling apart? Sometimes simply replacing the
worn out metal and brass elements of your home can help drastically change its
look. Get rid of your old box and look at
residential curbside mailboxes in different colors and designs. Find new house numbers
for the front, and see if you can get them in a different font.
