Have you ever walked into a home and looked down to see stained carpet or flooring? It definitely makes you want to keep your shoes on. Imagine if you were a buyer looking at the same floor, trying to envision your life in that space and considering the different types of flooring available.
The right type of flooring and whether it is well taken care of can make a big difference to buyers, especially when it comes to selling your home with Eight-Five Property Ventures. If your floor is questionably clean, here are a few fixes to help remedy the issue and ensure your home sells smoothly.
Here are 3 Different Types of Flooring
- Hardwood Flooring
- Carpeting
- Tiles
Does your home have hardwood floors?
Youโre in luck. Buyers love hardwood floors, and some will actually pay extra to get them. In fact, they could be that final selling point. If your hardwood floors are covered by carpet, painted over, or showing anything but the natural wood grain, itโs time for an overhaul. Pull up those carpets and get started on the sanding. Exploring different types of flooring can also be beneficial to appeal to a wider range of buyers.
With the ability to rent large sanders and other tools, you can either refinish the hardwood floor yourself or hire a professional. Remember, however, that hardwood floors in Nevada homes have a tendency to show off scratches, dents and uneven surfaces. If you donโt think you can do an adequate job, hire a professional.
Does your home have carpeting?
If you donโt have hardwood floors, take a look at your carpeting. If itโs stained, outdated, bright, or ragged, itโs time to pull it up. When laying the new carpet, consider different types of flooring and use high-quality carpet padding to make it comfortable to stand on. Many buyers will kneel down and touch the floor, so make sure the carpet feels soft to the touch.
Does your home have tiles?
Although tiles are beautiful, they typically show every ounce of old grime, dirt, chips, and cracks. Go through your home and replace any that are chipped, cracked, or show signs of bad wear and tear. Make sure the grout is clean and new-looking, and use cleaners or a steam cleaner to get rid of any stains. Additionally, consider exploring different types of flooring as alternatives to tiles for a fresh look and easier maintenance.
Beautiful floors can go a long way toward selling Nevada homes. Take an honest look at yours. It might just get your home sold.
