Affordable Updates to Enhance the Look of Your Home
M. Lee Raia, Owner, Real Estate Styling®, LLC,
Baltimore, MD, offers the following suggestions for
simple, affordable updates to enhance the look of your
home’s interior and exterior:
1) To add value and style to your home's interior:
Consider updating your home's hardware and lighting for
a fresh new look. Options include oil-rubbed bronze,
copper or brushed nickel, as the newest/best-selling
finishes. The project can be handled as one or broken
down into several smaller projects. Areas to consider
include kitchen cabinetry, bathroom fixtures, as well
as, door knobs and lighting throughout the home.
2) To add interest and curb appeal to your home's
exterior:
Enhance your home's appearance via exterior lighting.
One can create visual interest by highlighting porches,
walkways and landscaping using a coordinated mix of
fixtures and techniques. A first step can be as simple
as spotlighting a single tree.
3) And finally, the number one option for improving your
home on a budget is Paint:
Two fresh coats of a quality paint create the backdrop
for everything else that goes into the home. If one is
considering selling in the near future, a carefully
chosen neutral would be the marketable choice. When
using a neutral, the key is to select a shade that both
coordinates with and enhances your home's flooring and
cabinetry.
