Flooring Counts

Neutral colours (on the left hand side of this picture) are always your best bet when purchasing carpet for selling your home.

A very simple, yet important part of selling your home is to make sure you show your potential buyers that you have taken care of your home. Well cared for flooring shows you care about maintaining your home.

Take the time to vacuum often and consider a professional steam clean if necessary. If your carpet is damaged beyond repair, new flooring is good investment you should seriously look into. Buyers will chip away at their offers to compensate for the repairs and often, the amount they estimate to complete the repairs is more than the actually costs to replace. When purchasing carpet, you don’t need to get the most expensive variety but always select a higher grade underlay, this will make the carpet look and feel it’s best.
