 What are the best improvements to make
when trying to sell your home in Utah

How can I get the most return when selling my home in Utah


Are you trying to sell your home in Utah? Should you do any improvements to your home in order to get top dollar? This all really depends on the current condition and value of your home, the current market value of your home and how the market is doing in your area. As far as Utah goes, the market is doing GREAT! Most homes don't need much done to them in order to sell quickly. You won't need to do much when listing your home on market. If you want to potentially sell your home for top dollar and multiple offers above market value, it may be worthwhile to spend some money to make your home stand out. If you're going to spend money, these are the areas where your money will be best spent!

Paint, trims and finishes! Here is one that everyone has heard time and time again, paint. The first impression of a home is the paint color. Stick with neutrals. If you want to do a pop of color or a feature wall, make it just that, a feature wall. Another great aspect of your home to invest in is trims and features. This means baseboards, casings crown molding, feature walls, barn doors, etc. When it comes to baseboards, you'll want to go as high as you can. In a room with a standard 8' ceiling, stick with 5" and in a room with a tall 10' ceiling, go 7". The higher the baseboards, the higher end the home will feel. You'll want your baseboards and your casings to match and stay away from oak and wood color and go with the standard white. A barn door is an in-expensive feature that will add not only value but that "gotta have it" element to your home. It may be the one feature that sells your home so it's worthwhile to make sure it is done right!

Deep clean and declutter. "A clean home is a happy home". We have all heard this quote and the saying is so true. A dirty and cluttered home shows the buyer that the sellers didn't put any care into their home so who knows what else is wrong with the home. Plus it is often hard to see past clutter or dated decor and clutter. Get rid of all unnecessary furniture and nick-nacks. Less is better.

Stage your home! If you can afford it, stage your home! If your furniture has a high end feel, you can get away with using what your have. It is worth it to spend a few hundred dollars to stage your home and yield several thousands in return. Staging your home will allow potential buyers to picture themselves in their future home and envision how they can decorate it to make it their own.

Storage and custom closets. This upgrade is often overlooked by sellers but it one of the things that most buyers will be looking for. Where will they store all of their things? If you have a small space, you'll have to get creative. Storage racks in garages, an organized pantry, cabinets above and around a fridge, etc. If you have the money, you should think about investing in a custom walk-in closet. Depending on the price range of your home, you can purchase your custom closet at a place like IKEA, where you can customize and build your own closet for a reasonable price, or hire a professional to do the job. Regardless, the closet is one area that is often overlooked and may be the deciding factor when buyers are choosing between their favorite homes.

Landscape. First impressions are everything. Landscaping may simply mean removing oil stains from the garage and giving the home a good pressure wash, trimming trees, adding mulch, etc. A clean look for your front and back yard will go a long way in increasing the value of your home.

Selling your home during the holidays,
Is it a good time to sell your home in Utah?


Are you needing to sell your home but have decided to wait due to the holidays? Is the holidays a bad time to sell a home? It may not be a bad time to sell after all! We'll tell you why...

The holidays are a special time for friends and family to gather and reflect on the year and spend quality time with one another. Most people are not thinking of selling their homes. This is both good and bad, good because most people don't want to sell during the holidays and bad for the same reason.

Why is it good to list your home when most people aren't thinking of selling? In short, the answer is inventory. Many people take their homes off market during the holidays or postpone showing until after the holidays are over. If most people aren't wanting to sell during the holidays, that means there's not a lot of homes on market. Yet there will always be those people who have to buy due moving for a job, etc. When the pickings are slim, the prices go up. Simple supply and demand. As long as your home is priced right for the market, your home should sell quickly and for a great price. Selling during the holidays may be good for another reason, having to buy during the holidays.

Most people who sell during the holidays do so only because they have to. Let's face it, the holidays are about friends and family, not having to get your home in show ready condition to constantly host strangers for showings.
