6 Upgrades Buyers are willing to pay more for in today's market!

People have varying wants and needs when searching for their dream home. 6 have come to the surface more often when our buyers are involved in their search so sellers take note of the following:

1. Air conditioning
The type of the air conditioning has a lot to do with the final price of the house. The more modern it is the more buyers are willing to pay to have it. The latest models of air conditioning systems are in high demand for a significant number of potential buyers. Clear area around HVAC Unit.

2. Kitchen island
This is one of those small but effective features of a house that, as crazy as it might seem may persuade a buyer to actually purchase a property. If your house doesn’t have a kitchen island, then voila, you know a possible future investment. It’s in-vogue! For many families, it’s a convenient kitchen aspect that makes their lives easier. Open kitchen as best you can.

3. Walk in Closets
More and more buyers have more and more stuff so they need more room than ever before to store this stuff.. Note that having walk ins or at least larger closets may be just the feature that will help you persuade the buyer to make his/her final decision. Removing clutter makes your closets look larger.

4. Fireplace
Fireplaces, hot tubs, pools, decks or other facilities can be included in the category of features people are willing to pay extra for. Improving standard’s living can always be a source of info when not knowing in what to invest. Place outside seating showing the best views your home has available.

5.  New kitchen appliances
The kitchen stands as one of the focus areas of the home. So selling a property with new kitchen appliances may turn out to be a smart idea indeed. More and more buyers fall in love with stainless steel appliances. 

6.  Double vanity sinks
Bathroom and kitchen areas are where you get the best return on your upgrades and the greatest visual attention to detail by the buyer. Clean, efficient and open bathroom areas make a home more desirable.

All in all, today’s buyer’s checklist includes all sorts of features that serve to improve their quality of life. Even though, each buyer has other priorities and requests, several common key elements can stand out at least as a starting point.

The size of the house, the interior features, the neighborhood or the location of the house are just some of the most frequent factors that may affect a sale, however you can never know what requests your next visitor has. Making your property appeal to a larger category of buyers is therefore most advisable!
