Budget-Friendly Kitchen Improvements When Selling

September 12th, 2024 by tisner


When selling your home, the kitchen can be a make-or-break selling point. While a total overhaul is not necessary, you want the kitchen to look its very best so house hunters are wowed when they walk into the room.

  • Install new hardware on drawers and cabinets. Classic styles are best for a kitchen that will soon be on the market, and less expensive.
  • Spruce up the cabinets! White and other neutrals give a clean look and brighten up the space, and all work well with pops of trendy color around the kitchen.
  • Give your sink a makeover simply by replacing the faucet and the handles.
  • Refurbish with new cabinet doors. This can be a little more expensive, but not as costly as replacing all of the cabinetry. Something as simple as adding trim to create a paneled door-look can make your cabinets look custom! Find other great cabinet makeovers from Better Homes & Gardens®.
  • Adding a tile backsplash gives a whole new look to your kitchen, and it is an easy DIY task. Ask This Old House shows step-by-step how to use adhesive mats and mosaic tile sheets for this kitchen improvement.
  • If the countertops are dated and unattractive, upcycle them with laminate if you have intermediate carpentry skills. If not, hire a pro for the job. Styles of laminate sheeting include look-alike marble and faux granite and can be purchased or ordered from your local home center.
  • Flooring is important in the kitchen, and in case you have spruced up the cabinets or added a new backsplash and the floors simply do not work well anymore, there are some affordable ways to improve it. The Spruce offers four types of flooring that look great and will not break the bank.

Whether you decide to make just one change, (or several!), create a budget, stick to it, and stretch the makeover out over a few months to keep from overspending. For potential buyers to come in and see a clean, new-looking kitchen shows them you care enough about the future owners to improve this much-used space. If your budget does not allow for a lot of improvements, remember that a simple update can make a big impact.
