If you buy and plan to resell or rent to get the most out of your property, you can do some upgrades to make it more attractive. The number of required updates will depend on the specific case. Obviously, if the roof, foundation, etc. must be met, this is without question. I'm talking about major repairs, but upgrades. This curve attracts and forces the buyer to go "wow" and pay a little more for the place.
If you are not going to work with a designer, and you would like to do it yourself, I suggest going to the library or buying a bunch of modern home style magazines to get an idea of what is now. most people want something chic and stylish. I like to call something “urban chic”; plenty of clean lines, minimalism and bright open spaces. Zen approach. This view is now sold in the mass market.
First impressions are always important, so the house needs the greatest love. Do not get tired. Choose interesting colors such as gray / purple, terracotta or sage. Draw everything that needs it, a tree, a railing, a mailbox, lamps, etc. I’m not saying a single color, you have black or white for contrast. If they cannot be painted, replace them.
If there is no landscape or not, you need to update the look. Take out or cut everything that is overgrown. Be merciless if necessary. Cedars are great when they are green and small, however, if they are yellow and too high, get rid of them. Make sure that you look short, so you can see the input path. Weed grass, if there is, add more seeds. Peel dirt debris and weeds, add more dark earth and mulch. Make a nice clean line between the grass and the garden. I would invest in a couple of bushes that contrast with each other and some bright annuals that light up the front.
Floors are the most important. They have such a big impact. They must be good. If there are hardwoods, I suggest redoing them. Coloring their dark is always nice. Parquet looks like an incredibly colored chocolate. It comes from the bad look of the 1970s on something modern and Asian. If floors need to be replaced, bamboo and other sustainable floors are trendy right now. If lino is old, change it. If you can afford a tile, do it.
Kitchen. If the kitchen is the vintage style of the 1950s, you don’t need to rip it and redo it and spend all that extra money. Draw a glossy cream and add stylish pens. You can even add casting.
If it is white melamine, you can paint it with special paint or save it as it is. Sometimes this is a surrounding area that can cheer her up and make her not such a “melamine”. Meaning, add a trendy tiled backsplash, a new worktop and handles. If melamine has a 1980 border that can be removed, remove it for a cleaner look.
If you have oak cabinets from 1990, they look incredibly beautiful. If the cabinetmaker hangs from the ceiling separating the eating area, you can take them down and use them somewhere else, like an island.
Additional touches:
- Mixers are important. They can be such a focal point in a room. You do not need to go high to have a polished modern look.
- I think that investing in the casting of the crown will add so much value to this place if this is done correctly (there is no need for a bathroom). Paint it glossy to give it a vintage look.
- Keep paint colors simple and light. The color of one wall in the room is dark gray or another fashionable color is beautiful, but use minimally.
- Now in the light is very fashionable.
- Make sure there is a flow of flowers from one room to another.
- Clean, clean windows are required.
- If necessary, tear off the wall to give the space more open sensation. For example, opening the kitchen in the living room. You should check with a structural engineer before singing anything.
- Ceiling lights and dimmers.
- Fashionable lamps and pens. Don't come up high. Places like Ikea are beautiful or places that restore the harvest.
Bathrooms are lightweight, because everything is in the choice of tiles and countertops. A white bath, sink and toilet are always in place and if they are in good condition, they will not need to be replaced. The box can be painted black, chocolate, white or cream. It will update any view.
