Grab A Paint Brush
Most Waltham Real Estate agents agree that a good paint job goes a long way when improving the value of your home. Repainting the outside of your home, certain rooms, or even every room is an easy and cheap way to majorly upgrade your home. Paint can freshen and liven up a room and it also cleans up any stains or scuffs on your walls. Waltham Realtors suggest using neutral colors like whites and beiges for both the inside out outside.

Change Your Hardware
If the hardware in your home looks to be a little outdated, it may be time to replace them. Hardware such as door handles, cabinets, faucets, sinks, etc. should be on the newer side if you’re looking to have them help you increase your home’s value. Replacing your hardware is easy, fast, and inexpensive which makes it a great weekend project! Waltham Realtors highly suggest this easy upgrade as it is one less thing a buyer will have to do, making it more likely for a buyer to make an offer.
