Spend a little time and money on that bathroom.
Kitchens and bathrooms are two very important spaces for any buyer, and they’re the two easiest spots to spend a little time and money and see huge improvements.
Take a look at your bathroom. Is your toilet getting old and grungy? Is your medicine cabinet tacky and outdated?If your toilet isn’t so appealing anymore, replace it! You can replace your toilet for a few hundred dollars, but the difference between an old grimy toilet and a new shiny toilet to a potential homeowner is huge.
The same thing goes for your shower tiles. Is the grout getting all grimy and stained? Does it look like a breeding ground for bacteria? If cleaning doesn’t make much headway, spend a few hundred dollars replacing those worn-out tiles and grout.
How’s the medicine cabinet looking? If you’ve got a small, cramped old medicine cabinet - or even one with an outdated light fixture – replace it! This is another fix that won’t cost you more than a few hundred dollars (or even less if you’re not replacing a light fixture) but it’ll make a big difference to potential buyers.
Finally, if you’ve got unused space in your bathroom, consider adding additional storage. Got a wide-open corner you’re not using? Add a corner cabinet to store toilet tissue or bath linens. Not using the space over the toilet? Add a nice cabinet to store toiletries.
Bathrooms are a great place where a few hundred dollars can go a long way to making the right impression, so don’t be afraid to spend it and spruce your bathroom up.
