Floors to Help Sell Your Home

Will new floors help sell your home? To be short – yes. Whether you are looking for a quick fix or to wanting to add value, new floors are an easy fix when putting your home on the market.

When deciding on what type of floors to put in your home, it’s always helpful to know what buyers are searching for. Trends are constantly changing, but it should come as no surprise the biggest preference in floors is hardwood flooring. Hardwood floors not only look beautiful but they also add value. Even laying hardwood floors in just the living room can help attract potential buyers.

Carpet is a great option for bedrooms.  According to Mass Real Estate News, “homeowners are split” on carpet in bedrooms, “slightly more than half prefer hardwood for the bedrooms and 44% prefer carpet”. Even if you have carpet in your bedrooms already, it’s a great idea to look into replacing it because “virtually all home buyers will NOT keep the carpet you have in your bedrooms”.  If nothing else, have your carpet professional cleaned; leaving dirty carpet in place can deter a sale.

Overall remember that new floors will spark interest for potential buyers and in most cases help sale your home. If you’re looking to sell your home and need a quote for new floors, visit us in Schertz or Universal City.
