3 Ways to Refresh Your Home for Instant ROI

The housing market around Kansas City is very competitive and hot right now... according to Redfin, the KC market in 2021 has experienced: 

• Many homes get multiple offers, some with waived contingencies.
  
• The average homes sell for about 1% above list price and go pending in around 16 days.
  
• Hot homes can sell for about 6% above list price and go pending in around 3 days.
  

Right now is a great time to maximize your return on investment if you are interested in selling your home. Let's explore 3 Ways to Refresh Your Home for Instant ROI.

#1: Paint Refresher

One way to revamp a space instantly is to add paint. Potential homeowners want to walk into your home and envision their stuff inside of the home. The more neutral the paint, the more creative the homebuyer can put into their thought process. The interior of the home is an inexpensive upgrade... now let's think about the exterior of your house. 

How is the exterior of your house paint? Is the paint chipping, fading? Is it a neutral color?

The exterior paint project is a more expensive update, but worth the spend to see the return. Curb appeal is key. You have 20 seconds for the first impression of your home, so make sure it's putting your best foot forward. 

#2: Outdoor living

Kansas City is known for having truly four seasons. Why not capitalize on that with an outdoor space that is conducive for enjoying each season? Have you considered expanding your current patio to a larger concrete slab? Are you pouring a new pool? basketball court? courtyard with a gazebo? Whatever your vision is for the outdoor area, new concrete may be an element to make it come to life. Don't just trust anyone to pour new concrete. Our team is highly experienced and carries a warranty that most other concrete companies won't even consider. Let us know if you'd like a free estimate on your expansion project! 

#3: Custom Floor Coatings

One way to add instant ROI, and improve a bland space is floor coatings. If you do a quick google search, you'll see many DIY posts and videos about epoxy flooring. Some people have great luck on completing the project... others, however make more of a mess and disaster, resulting in a more expensive repair.  Thinking about it... if you and your neighbor have your houses listed at the same time, similar floor plans, square footage, etc... what would set your home apart from theirs? A true "WOW" factor would be a custom floor coating in the garage, back patio, basement, or in the outdoor space. 

Think about any typical home's garage floor... it is usually an oil-stained, tire marked, dirty standard concrete slab. The chemical we utilize is polyaspartic, which is 20X MORE DURABLE than epoxy. This allows for a sleek look, all while maintaining greater durability and sustainability. 

According to PierMagic's sister company, PolyMagic , there are some comparisons between the chemical used by PierMagic, which is superior to the typical epoxy floor coating. 

• Polyaspartic Garage Floor Coatings won’t peel or flake like the epoxy floor coatings (especially the DIY jobs)
  
• Epoxy curing time is length… up to a week…. Polyaspartic only takes about a day (you are able to walk on the surface in SIX hours!)
  
• Polyaspartic has evenly distributed color flakes across the flooring – epoxy usually has the base coat show through
  
• Polyaspartic is 20x MORE DURABLE than epoxy. This is crucial for areas such as the garage where you have vehicles driving in and out, have oil and chemical spills, etc.

The extent of the color and style combinations is unmatched.Take a look at the Floor Design Visualizer below to envision a new floor in your existing area. Here’s how to get started:
