Add Big Value With Inexpensive Home Improvements
TIPSW E E K L Y
FREE
You may have always wanted a big project like renovating an old house. Or you may have fallen in love with a slightly rundown but charming place.
If you can’t afford big-ticket items like renovated kitchens or adding bathrooms; consider small improvements that can make a big difference.
There are plenty of inexpensive tricks that can provide some incentive to perk up your investment, without a complete overhaul. Here’s 7 boosters to get the home beautifi cation process rolling:
1. Modernize the Mess HallBrighten the cabinets in the kitchen with a fresh coat of paint or some updated hardware. Add a new faucet, light fi xtures or change the
window coverings for a more modern feel.
2. Spa SparkleA quick fi xture change, a new toilet seat and fresh accessories can be all you need to brighten up the bathroom. A fresh coat of grout in the shower or maybe even a new pre-fabricated tub can do wonders.
3. Ardent Appliances If new appliances aren’t in the budget, look to re-facing. Some appliance doors can just be fl ipped inside out for the opposite color, so all you need is a screwdriver to update. You can also request new fronts and tops from the manufacturer to create the streamlined look.
4. Machine CleanSpruce up neutral carpets with
a professional cleaning to brighten up the room and clear any unwanted odors or stains. If your carpet is blemished, try placing area rugs or large furniture over the worn spots.
5. Light Up Your LifeBreezy window coverings allow you to control how much natural lighting you’d like to let in, and a strategically placed table lamp or a dramatic chandelier can add character, while making your rooms appear larger and more open.
6. Straighten Out Your StorageCreate space by utilizing closet organizers or wire and laminate shelving in the pantry, closet and garage. Purge some old junk in a yard sale or donate to remove some clutter & make
the space look bigger.
7. Opportunity KnocksChoose a hearty piece of hardware for your front door that emphasizes sturdiness, and a bold color that says, “look at me!” Refi nish the front door with a bright hue or faux fi nish for a refreshing fi rst impression.

WHAT’S INCLUDEDIN A HOME INSPECTION?
A home inspector will go through the property and perform a comprehensive visual
inspection. A typical inspection includes an examination of the structure from top
to bottom, including the heating, air conditioning systems, the interior plumbing and
electrical systems, the roof and visible insulation, walls, ceilings, fl oors, windows
and doors, the foundation, basement and visible structure.
If you can spare the time, it’s a good idea to accompany the inspector during the
process. This can give you an opportunity to learn about any problems fi rst-hand and
become more familiar with your new house at the same time. The inspector may also
be able to share some valuable maintenance tips with you during the inspection.
Following the examination, the inspector will provide a report that not only points
out possible defects or areas of concern, but also the positive aspects of the structure
as well as the type of maintenance that will be necessary to keep the home in good
shape. The home inspector should be willing to answer any questions you have as
well as clarify any limitations of the inspection to avoid misunderstandings. Avoid
fi rms that issue only a verbal report. The report should be more than just a checklist
of items inspected. The home inspector should also issue a written report with ac-
curate cost estimates for any major defects discovered during the inspection.
A professional assessment will provide complete information about the condition of
the property you are considering and will help avoid any unpleasant surprises after
the sale. In addition, a home inspector can remain totally objective, while you as the
prospective homebuyer may be emotionally involved.
A home inspection usually lasts about three hours. The inspection fee for a typical
single-family house can vary depending upon the geographic area. The particular
features of the home such as size, age and special structures will also be taken into
consideration.
