AFY Jim Dilley - FSBO V1 Book

look almost new with a paint overhaul:

• towel bars • toilet paper holders • door handles • old light fixtures

The goal is to patch up your home nicely with as little cash as possible. This is a great way to do it. If you do have broken or completely worn-out hardware, you had better replace the whole set, unless you can find matching pieces. You could paint the old and new to match. You could also combine the good parts in one bathroom, and replace all the hardware in the other.

OTHER CHEAP BATH AND KITCHEN UPGRADES

• Buy a new toilet seat. • Refurbish worn-looking cabinets with a faux paint project. • Replace an old, ugly bathroom sink with a pedestal variety. • Repair grout in tile backsplashes, floors, and tub surrounds.

POINTS TO REMEMBER:

• Staging is important because buyers establish interest in the first eight seconds of seeing a home.
