5 Must Have Features in a Home

When selling a home, it’s easy to nitpick every detail and try to make it look it’s best. However, there are a few key things that a buyer will be looking for, and if you can really WOW them with those details, you may find selling a home at the Lake of the Ozarks to be a piece of cake. This is a buyers market, so chances of finding a buyer for your home are strong, but if you can really nail these 5 must have's in a home - you may find that the sale is even better than you hoped.



Natural Light

If your home has great windows, please open them up and make great use of them! Natural light is one of the easiest ways to increase your home’s appeal to a potential buyer. Having attractive lighting fixtures is always a plus, but if you can really open up the natural lighting (especially in the kitchen and home office), you’ll find that buyers will see your home in a whole new light ;).

Adjustable Spaces

Buyers are all looking for one thing - a flex space. Buyers want rooms that can be used for many different needs. They don’t want a room that has to be an office or has to be a game room. They want a room that could be a home office at one phase of life, could be a guest bedroom for another phase, or even a nursery. Make sure that when you stage your home, you aren’t making a room look like it’s committed to just one thing. Carefully stage them so that they could be a playroom, office, or guest bedroom.

Keep Things Energy Efficient

If some of the appliances in your home need to be replaced, make sure that you are replacing them with energy efficient pieces. Home buyers are quickly attracted to a place that already has efficient appliances. It shows that they can expect to save money while living in this Lake of the Ozarks home. A few things that stand out are double pane windows, updated insulation, or LED lighting.

Stainless Steel Kitchen

Stainless steel appliances have been a must-have for quite some time - but they aren’t going anywhere. Buyers love the sleek and shiny look of stainless steel. You don’t have to go and buy brand new appliances for your kitchen, but if you were already planning a remodel, make sure that you replace the appliance with something that will increase your sale value.

Beautiful Curb Appeal

As we move into the winter months, it can be more challenging to make the outdoors beautiful. But with a little bit of creativity, it’s possible. Focus on the areas that will shine through any season. Adding paved walkways, outdoor lighting, a new roof, updating the front door color, or power washing can all be easy ways to make a big impression. If you decide to sell during the summer months, you can clean up the garden spaces, add new bushes, and make sure all of the grass is trimmed.
