Features That Florida Home Buyers Want

Although many home trends come in and out of fashion, there are certain improvements that you can make to your Florida home that will always look attractive to buyers. When you’re making an improvement to your home, you want to know that it will not only be worthwhile for you as an owner but also allow you to get a return on your investment. Read on for some of the best improvements that you can make to your Florida home.

Updated Kitchens

Buyers love updated kitchens. There are a few key areas that you should focus on updating in the kitchen to attract buyers. First, take a look at your countertops. If they need to be replaced, be choosy about the type of material you use. Granite, marble, and quartz are “in.” Keep in mind that quartz tends to stain less, giving it a slight advantage over the rest of the materials.

Another area to focus on is the appliances. Buyers love the idea of updated appliances because it’s one less thing that they need to do once they move into the house. It’s an investment that will give you return as a seller and your house may sell even faster with the desirable features. 

Fix Your Flooring

In Florida, you want your home to feel light and airy because of the warm weather all year through. Consider getting rid of ay wall-to-wall carpeting that you may have in your home and replace it with hardwood flooring. Hardwood floors are easy to clean and give your home an overall neat appearance. Carpet tends to warm up a room. You can still get that warm feeling with an area rug. Hardwood flooring also lasts longer than carpet, so there won’t be a need for replacement or even the deep cleanings that rugs require. If you suffer from allergies, hardwood floors are certainly a better option since they don’t harbor dust and pollen as easily.

New Windows 

The windows in your home need to be replaced about every 20 years. The more light that the windows let in your Florida home, the more attractive your home will look. If you’re looking to add or change windows in your home think big in terms like floor-to-ceiling windows, skylights, and bay windows. These features are sure to make your Florida home appear much more attractive. 

With a few simple changes, you can really make your Florida home more attractive to buyers. You’ll also enjoy the benefits of any improvements that you make to your home for as long as you live on the property.
