It’s March, which means Spring is on the horizon. If you’re looking to sell your manufactured home, Spring is a great time to do it. The weather is usually fair, so people will be motivated to get outside and look at possible homes to buy.
Selling a manufactured home doesn’t have to be difficult. Creek Valley Properties will help you every step of the way and help you get the value you deserve from your home.
Critical Repairs: Key to a Successful Home Sale
Before you sell your manufactured home, it’s important to make sure to make necessary repairs, especially if they are major, as not only will this affect the sales price of your home, but most buyers are looking for turn-key homes, i.e. homes that are in move-in condition. Buyers will definitely want to know if the roof has any damage or leaks, if the heating/cooling system is in order, and if there are any plumbing issues.
Budget-Friendly Improvements for a Positive First Impression
Once you’ve sorted larger concerns, there are a number of improvements you can make on a budget that can really make a difference when you’re hoping to give a buyer a good first impression.
Revitalize with Vibrant Vinyl Flooring
If your flooring is outdated but your actual floors are in good shape, you can often put new vinyl tiles right over your existing tile. Vinyl flooring is relatively inexpensive and comes in all kinds of designs, including flooring that resembles beautiful wood flooring.
Bathtub Glow Up: Cost-Effective Renewal
Does your bathtub look a little dingy and worn out but is otherwise in fine structural condition? Replacing a bathtub is expensive. An alternative is to reglaze your existing tub. This is something that you can do yourself if you’re handy or something you can hire a professional to do.
Flower Power for Curb Appeal
Everybody loves flowers. If you have an existing garden, be sure to pull weeds and prune appropriately so that your plants and flowers can shine. If you don’t have an existing garden but do have an area outside of your home where you can plant flowers, by all means do it. If your yard is not really equipped for planting flowers, consider planting some annuals like hearty marigolds in flower pots or decorate with a hanging basket or two. Granted, buying seeds is the most inexpensive way to do this, but if you don’t have enough lead time, you can buy planted flowers at your local garden center.
Transformative Power of Paint
Painting can make a world of difference, isn’t super expensive, and something you can do yourself. A fresh coat of paint can make your home more inviting to buyers. Painting walls, trim, and cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom is a great way to beautify on a budget.
Spotless and Inviting: The Clean Machine Approach
Make sure your siding is clean, floors are scrubbed and swept, furniture and surfaces are dusted, appliances are clean inside and out, windows are clean inside and out, and carpets have been given a deep clean.
Decluttering for a Buyer’s Imagination
Buyers like to imagine themselves in the home and a cluttered home is off putting. If you are still living in the home while you’re selling it, remember that less is definitely more when it comes to furniture and personal belongings. If you can, put items you don’t need into a storage unit, have a yard sale, or donate clothing and items you no longer need or use.
