Updated Appliances Key in Clearwater Beach Home Sales

If you are trying thinking about selling your Clearwater Beach Homes For Sale this year, then be sure to think about your appliances and how they add or subtract from your home.  Buyers may be looking for a home that is move-in ready, while other buyers are looking for a home that needs some work, so they can get a good deal and personalize the home. If your home is in the needs-work category, then you probably know the offers you receive will be lower, but sometimes the offers are much lower than you anticipated.

Today‘s topic is appliances and some advice on what to do before you list your Clearwater Beach Homes For Sale:

1. If you have older appliances, then upgrading them help you get higher offers for your home. One tip is to leave the new stickers or labels on the appliances, so it will be obvious to the buyers the appliances are new. If your appliances are just a few years old, then a home warranty that covers maintenance is a good way to make the buyers feel comfortable. Our recommendation is to have a home inspection before you list your property, and have the inspector tell you how much life is left in your appliances. This will help you determine if a home warranty or replacement is the way to go for the price you seek.

2. If you replace appliances, then use stainless steel. Clearwater Beach Homes For Sale sellers may be concerned that stainless steel requires more cleaning to look their best for showings. Keep in mind that stainless steel appliances are the most popular choice among buyers. Buyers often comment that the stainless steel appliances look luxurious; even if the kitchen has no other updates.

3. If you replace appliances, then purchase the most energy efficient ones in your budget. As you know, many buyers are putting together a budget when they are looking at homes, and they may be looking for energy efficient appliances.
