Marlboro NJ Homes -Fast Ways to Update Your Kitchen and Increase Value, Roy Giordano, 732-213-2438

While there are many different variables that contribute to selling a home, during the course of my real estate career, I have witnessed one constant: the kitchen.

Today, the kitchen has become more of a multi-functional space than ever before, where cooking happens alongside bill paying and homework, not to mention the kitchen's role as social hub for family and friends. That's why it's more important than ever to buyers and sellers alike that this key room be fresh and inviting.

While home improvement experts report that kitchen remodels provide anywhere from an 80-100% return on investment, based on my years of experience working with homeowners, I have found that just by updating certain aspects, the entire look and feel of the kitchen can be refreshed and modernized-and your home's value increased in the process.

As design expert Melissa Birdsong, vice president for Trend, Design & Brand at Lowe's Companies, Inc. (www.lowes.com), says, if the kitchen is outdated and tired, the whole house can feel that way; a few simple updates can make all the difference in getting the green light on the buying decision. So whether you want to update your kitchen for your own lifestyle enhancement or to help move it off the market, try these tips from Birdsong:

1.Color and light are the easiest, most cost-efficient elements to add personality and ambience to the kitchen. Use your vegetable bin and spice cabinet for inspiration! A scheme of natural greens, yellows, mustards and russets washed with dimmable overhead and under-cabinet lighting can add energy as well as create a level of calm.

2.If the existing cabinets are sturdy but the finish is sending out a distress signal, a well-executed paint job can turn it around. Mismatched appliances and worn flooring are other leading visual cues, so if the budget permits, replace them.

3.Last but not least, add sparkle and a new point of view to the kitchen by replacing the metals palette--cabinet hardware, faucet, lighting and outlet covers. A few thoughtfully chosen, simple finish updates can seal the deal.

Marlboro Home Values Thinking about selling your home. Get a Free Home evaluation.

Pricing your home correctly in our current Real Estate market is of paramount importance. If you want your house to sell, it must be priced correctly or it will wind up on the expired list with the rest of the over-priced homes in your area. Most everyone seems to have an idea of what their home is really worth. The true market value of your home is what someone is willing to pay for it.

This is where the Comparative Market Analysis plays an important role in pricing your home for sale. For those of you who aren't familiar with the process, I'll give you a quick overview on how I determine Home Values.

First I conduct a search for all the listings in your immediate selling area. This will include the active listings, homes under contract, and recently sold homes. It's important to see the actually selling price of homes rather than just the asking price. We also take a look at your competition to determine a pricing strategy to get your home sold before the others. Another factor to consider is the average days on market for a home.

Next I complete a CMA check list at your home. While completing this detailed check list I will note all the aspects of your home. We will take into account all the amenities and condition of your home. Now it's time to compare your home to your competition. Yes, you are competing with your neighbors homes and we need to be ahead of the curve in both in pricing and the marketing of your home. Marlboro home values are very competitive when it comes to pricing!

Of course the size of your home, number of rooms, property size and the exact location will be the key factors to determine the final price of your home. I will compare your home to similar homes and then make the necessary adjustments for pricing.
