Get Fired Up with Quick Fixes that Will Pay Off for Your Huntsville AL Home

With fall in the air, it's time to spruce up your Huntsville AL home. Almost every house could use some remodeling here and there, but if you're thinking about putting your house on the market in the near future, you'll also need to consider investing in updates that will provide a return.

So, before you fire up your grill, below are a few quick repairs to spark motivation, kindle a good investment and put fire behind a speedy sale of your Huntsville AL home.

• Flooring. Consider refinishing hardwood floors, if they haven't been done in a while; it's worth the investment. Carpet should be in great shape. If not, replace it with a new neutral color. Also, make sure there aren't any noticeable cracks in tile floors.


• Kitchens. Consider updating your countertops. Granite is great, but most markets still appreciate nice laminate. You can refinish cabinets with paint or stain, if they're looking old and tired. If nothing else, a few dollars worth of drawer pulls will go a long way to sprucing up the look of your kitchen. Finally, consider replacing a worn-out faucet � it's easy, and most home owners can probably do it themselves.


• Paint and wallpaper. Remove your wallpaper. Even buyers that like wallpaper will hate yours � it's just a fact of life. Also, make sure every room looks freshly painted. Most buyers want a finished house, not a bunch of projects.


• Roof. Consider replacing your roof, if it needs it. You'll get most of your money back, and your house will sell a lot faster. Buyers will likely move on from properties needing large repairs.


• Exterior. Patch cracks in the cement, plant flowers and replace dated door hardware. These are all inexpensive fixes that will pay off with a quick sale for more money.
