What you absolutely can’t do if you are going to sell your house soon
If you are planning to sell your property in the next few years, then you need to think twice before making any major changes to your home. Some "improvements", warns Time.commay, on the contrary, scare off potential buyers. ForumDaily talks about 5 repairs that may prevent you from selling a home.
1. Swimming pools
It is very important to remember that many property buyers do not want to buy a house with a pool. Firstly, a lot of money needs to be spent on its maintenance, and secondly, swimming pools are a danger to young children. So, if you plan to sell a house in the near future, then you should better think over the idea of building a pool.
2. Home Office
Those who prefer to work at home, very often equip home office for work. But buyers are unlikely to be happy. And they want to see in the new place, for example, an additional bedroom, but not an office.
3. Garage
Many tenants in search of additional square meters will refurbish a car garage under the room. However, most home buyers would like to have a garage.
4. Garden in the yard
Of course, flowers and flower beds adorn the courtyard of the house. But this should not be abused. Not all buyers are willing to spend money on the maintenance of the garden. And some do not like to dig in the ground.
5. Bright colors
Red poppies on the walls or bright colors may not appeal to potential buyers. Try to have pastel colors predominate in your home before selling.
