If you’re selling your home, you need to make sure that your
spaces are inviting and updated. The living room is the focal
point of your home so ensuring that prospective buyers see
the rooms full potential is a must. Here are a few living room
improvements that will attract buyers and likely sell your home for
more money.
Light It Up
The simplest trick to brighten up the room is to open the blinds
and let the natural lighting come through. Adding new bright light
fixtures is one of the best upgrades you can make.
Neutral Wall Colors
Before listing your home, give your living room a fresh coat of paint
to revamp the space. White, off-white, or even light gray are great
choices for neutral colors.
Mindful Staging
A helpful tip to increase appeal is to declutter furniture. Keeping
decorations simple will help buyers better visualize their own
belongings in the home. For example, a piece of art, a plant, and
a few pieces of furniture should be basic enough for the appeal to
increase while also remaining homely.
Update Flooring
If your living room has old carpeting, replace it with wood or
tile flooring. Depending on your budget, there are numerous
alternatives. An affordable and easily maintained option is wood-
look vinyl. If you’re unsure which flooring to go with, reach out to me

Showcase Extra Shelving or Storage
Storage space always appeals to buyers, especially in the living
room. If your room has any niches, you could incorporate a built-in
shelf to add that much more value to the room. The biggest take
away is don’t dismiss dead space that can be utilized for shelving
and storage.
