Book Description
When preparing to sell a home, every little thing counts. Home Makeovers That Sell offers everything from last-minute tidying tips and staging strategies to inexpensive improvements that will boost the market value of any home. The key is to allow potential buyers to see the home as they might live in it, not how the current owner does. This book illuminates exactly what factors determine a home?s value and which improvements will increase it the most. The author provides systematic approaches designed to get top dollar. Homeowners will learn how to:

* create curb appeal
* de-clutter and clean (really clean) every room
* "undecorate" overly personalized rooms
* revitalize the two most important rooms in the house: the bathroom and the kitchen
* organize closets, basements, attics, and laundry rooms
* and stage the home to make it truly irresistible

Filled with checklists, charts and ideas to help owners prioritize and budget their pre-sale preparations, Home Makeovers That Sell is the key to selling a home as quickly and profitably as possible.

5 out of 5 stars Any involved in home renovations and home sales needs this   May 12, 2007

Plenty of books tell how to buy and sell homes and others how to remodel; but for a specific book on getting the most from a remodel project, HOME MAKEOVERS THAT SELL is the item of choice. Here are tips based not on home renovations but on over twenty years of experience as a real estate broker; from creating curb appeal by replacing shrubs and refinishing a driveway to using accent lights to make the most of a home's natural beauty. Any involved in home renovations and home sales needs this, so public libraries will find it a popular lend.

We own a San Diego interior design company (Anna Rode Designs), and frequently are called on to give advice to home sellers on ways to make their homes stand out from the crowd without spending a fortune. This book is an excellent reference for homeowners, who should take their advice seriously. Of course, it can't provide design advice like interior designers can, but it is full of sound pointers that any homeowner can do: de-cluttering, brightening rooms, cleaning, painting, eliminating personal items, and so forth. We recommend this book to our clients.
