THINKING ABOUT SELLING YOUR HOME?

THINKING ABOUT SELLING YOUR HOME?

As a professional interior designer in Bergen County, NJ, I often help my clients who are considering selling their home. Today, there are features that people look for that accommodate both work and play. These homes are fetching the highest prices of all. You may want to include these things in your home now for the future when you are ready to put the house on the market.

#1. WHAT ARE THE FEATURES THAT SELL A HOUSE FASTER?

When you list your home, if you can mention that your home is set up for remote work, that will be a plus. People want work-friendly amenities to make it easier for them to get the job done.

Additionally, features that are energy efficient and are sustainable get lots of attention these days.

Our lives have changed somewhat in the last few years and current buyers are looking for the things you have already done to make living easier and unwinding and entertaining better. Where we live is becoming more important than where we work.

INTERNET CONNECTION.

A strong connection has become essential and a zoom ready space can add value to your home sale price.

KITCHEN FEATURES.

Steam ovens topped the list for a second year as the home chef became a “thing”. Enabling the kitchen to be cleaned up faster and easier is also a big plus, thus multiple dishwashers are useful. Quartz countertops and new appliances lead the requested elements.

OUTDOOR SPACE.

This becomes a retreat space. If your home has an outdoor kitchen with a space for dining, entertaining and lounging, that is a home run! A pizza oven is a great addition for outside cooking.

OTHER FEATURES.

Maybe an EV charging station in the garage would be attractive to some buyers. But double pane windows, programmable thermostats, and smart sprinkler systems also adds to the selling speed.
