These Bedroom Improvements Will Help You Sell Your Home Fast—and for More Money

Before you list your home, you’ll want to make any improvements you can to make it more appealing to buyers—and that includes making improvements in the master bedroom.

But when it comes to renovating your bedroom, what improvements are going to deliver the best results when it comes time to sell?

A recent video from realtor.com outlined bedroom improvements that will help your home sell faster—and for a higher price!—including:

• Update your lighting. Lighting is crucial in a bedroom. If you can, consider swapping out old, outdated light fixtures for something more modern. Or, if new light fixtures aren’t in your budget, at least swap out your bulbs; LED bulbs will make the room feel brighter—and they’re more energy efficient!
• Clean out your closet. A cluttered closet can be a major turnoff for buyers. Before you list your home, clean out your closet. Decluttering can make a small closet appear larger, which can make it more appealing to potential buyers.
• Tone down the colors. You might love your bedroom’s bright purple accent wall, but when it comes to selling your home, a neutral color palette is the way to go. Neutrals create a “blank canvas” that allows potential buyers to better picture themselves in your space. So before you sell your home, make sure to repaint any brightly colored bedroom walls in a more neutral shade (like cream, beige, or gray).
