4.0 out of 5 stars
Provides easy and affordable ideas to fix up your house.,
By A Customer
This review is from: 100 Surefire Improvements to Sell Your House Faster (Paperback)
The book provided many easy and affordable projects to increase the value of our house and sell our house quickly. My wife and I did most of the projects ourselves, or with a little help from friends. Even the more difficult and expensive projects can be done more easily and economically if you shop around for bargains and have handy family and friends who can help. Based on input from several real estate agents who have inspected our home, the $2,000 we put into cleaning, fixing, painting, and sprucing up our house will increase our selling price by $8,000 to $10,000, and will enable us to sell our house quickly, because it compares very favorably to other houses on the market. This little book more than pays for itself!!!

This review is from: 100 Surefire Improvements to Sell Your House Faster (Paperback)
Home buyers as well as home sellers will learn how to increase the value of ANY home. Many of these improvements can be made anyone, and for very little money. Doing just a few of these things will put more money in the seller's pocket and will decrease the time that their home is on the market.
