Increasing Home Resale Value
Sep 30, 2020

Ready to sell? If so, your floors are key to boosting your home’s resale value. Look down. How are they holding up? Sure, you’ve gotten some great years out of this house, but you don’t want it to wear those years on its floors. From the kids and pets to countless holiday parties, your floors have gone through it all. So before you list, check out the most sought-after flooring options for homebuyers to give you the best bang for your buck.
1. Hardwood Floors
Hardwood is one of the best flooring choices for homeowners looking to sell. Nothing can compare to the timeless style of hardwood floors. Homebuyers are attracted to the classic, natural look of hardwood. Plus, some hardwood has the ability to be refinished time and time again, allowing the homebuyer to make it their own. Depending on your home’s style, there’s a hardwood size and species to truly add to your home’s charm.
2. Waterproof Floors
There’s nothing that appeals to families more than waterproof floors. Waterproof floors combine beauty with practicality—ideal for kids, pets, and the entire family. Plus, you’re not limited with these floors. Choose from tile, waterproof hardwood, luxury vinyl, and carpet. Yep. Even waterproof carpet. That’ll turn heads during your first showing. Homebuyers will be thrilled to walk into a low-maintenance, durable home, perfect for every family.
3. Laminate Floors
If you’re not looking to invest in hardwood, laminate is a nice low-budget alternative. Laminate can imitate the beauty and charm of real hardwood at a reduced cost. Made with resin and fiberboard material, laminate’s imprinted image of wood is highly realistic. Homebuyers will love it. It’s low-maintenance and highly durable. Plus, it’s resistant to scratches and stains thanks to new technologies. So, for homebuyers with pets, check!
4. Luxury Vinyl Floors
Affordable. Durable. Easy. Three words to describe luxury vinyl. Wow homebuyers with the look of wood or stone without overspending. Luxury vinyl is long-lasting, resistant to moisture, and easy to maintain. It looks great and performs better, a homebuyers dream.
