I specialize in Leander in fact I maintain the websites LeanderHomes.com and LeanderWeather.com If you have not sold your home call me and I can help. You probably will have to update the bathrooms. Bathrooms and kitchens need to sparkle.

Toni:

Updating the bathrooms might be a good idea but I recommend that you get a professional REALTOR out to help you make that decision before you spend money that is unnecessary. My clients feel that I have helped save them money with getting their houses ready for sale. Location and condition are two very important aspects; but pricing is the key in this market.

Give me a call, and I can come with my team to give you expert advice.

Yes, paint the home and consider updating the baths, especially if they are getting rough around the edges. However, the most important thing is to list the property with a REALTOR member of the MLS who can identify your target market, and tell you how to reach that market.

Remember though that you are not adding significant value through the remodeling.

Kitchen and bathroom remodels will get you the most bang for your buck. Fresh paint also does wonders. The 11 acres that your hone resides on will be appealing to people that enjoy the outdoors, therefore pay close attention to your outdoor living spaces (i.e. patio etc...). If you would like some advice I would be happy to do a walk through of your home and give you some ideas. I sold a property on 5 acres in Honeycomb Hollow in 2006 and a home on over 6 acres in Honeycom Hollow in 2007. Call me if you would like to meet 659-7579.

a) fresh paint
b) hardwood flooring, tile
c) Lighting
d) clean carpet
e) Pack up all move out furniture makes the home look bigger
f) hardware

A house without hardwood floors will be less likely to sale, whether it's a $50K townhome or a luxury home, these are only a few items that make a house marketable. GOOD LUCK
