Homes Suited For "Grandmillenials"

Briana Gonzalez

Are you someone in their mid-20s to late thirties who doesn’t gravitate towards more modern and contemporary aesthetics? Do you find yourself having an affinity towards design that many might consider more “traditional” or “antiquated”? Well, you may not have known, but you may be considered to be what is now referred to as a “grandmillenial.” While you may disregard labels, you may fall in love with the form of architectural design that is less “granny-chic” and more elegant, an appreciation for the aesthetic of the past. For those who revel in the surroundings of Art-Deco, regal columns, and Emory Roth, here are a few homes to take a look at that seamlessly combine modern luxuries with a grandmillenial style.

6 of the Best Renovations to Make Before Selling Your Home

When you look at the big picture, selling a home is an exciting adventure—but when you get down to the nitty-gritty updates and changes, your stress probably skyrockets. In short, getting your home ready to sell is an intimidating process. Whether you’re planning on moving now or in a few years, it’s important to make your home look attractive to future buyers. To get started on your path to a speedy sale, use this list of the best renovations to make before selling your home. You’ll be glad you did.

Complete a Bathroom Remodel

One of the first places potential buyers look at are the bathrooms. Making an investment in upgrading and renovating the bathrooms is one of your best options for an increased resale value. Think about it this way—you want to excite potential buyers, so add some enhancements that will make them remember your home. Some typical updates include replacing the vanity, purchasing a new tub, and installing new flooring.

Enhance Your Front Porch

Your home’s curb appeal is another big selling point for prospective buyers. You’ll want to put some time into the outside of your home so that it frames the beauty on the inside of the home. You can do this in a few different ways. Installing a new door or updating the paint should be your first step. From there, upgrade the hardware and line the pathway to the door with a trimmed yard and some flowers. The better first impression, the quicker the sale.

Put on Fresh Paint

As we mentioned above, updating the paint on the front door is a good remodeling step. Next, take the paint cans inside and freshen up the paint in the rest of the house as well. You may not need to repaint every room, but if you notice any chipped paint or stains on the ceilings, then you’ll need to deal with that before buyers come inside. Repaint the bathrooms before you remodel, add some personality to your living room, and give the rooms a fresh new start with a neutral color. You want to entice buyers, but you also don’t want them to think the home still has too much “you” in it.

Improve the Home’s Energy-Efficiency

Another big selling point for a lot of homebuyers is energy-efficiency. Luckily for you, you can improve your home’s energy-efficiency in a number of ways. Use only sustainable materials for your renovations, update to energy-efficient appliances, or add insulation to the home. There are tons of different green design tips you can follow to make your home into the environmentally friendly haven people are looking for.

Plan Kitchen Upgrades

This is a bigger renovation to take on, so you won't be able to DIY this yourself. Consider using a contractor who specializes in kitchen remodels to achieve your desired design. If you can’t fully remodel the kitchen, think of different ways to make small enhancements to the space. For example, it's quick, easy and cheap to swap out the cabinet handles with new ones, and it's easy enough to paint the walls. If your cabinets are made of wood, these can be painted too, and you can easily swap old laminated counters for new marble or granite counters instead.
 
If you have a bigger budget, you could also update your appliances. Matching your fridge, oven, washing machine, kettle, toaster and microwave can help to bring the kitchen together without having to make structural changes, and will help to save money too by improving energy efficiency. New lighting will also help with this, which will also improve the ambience for entertaining and visibility for cooking. 

Upgrade Your Garage

Don't underestimate the power of a well-upgraded garage when it comes to selling your home. A functional and visually appealing garage can be a significant selling point. Consider resurfacing the floor with an epoxy coating for durability and a sleek look. If you are located in Colorado, there are options better suited for the climate, such as polyurea concrete coatings. When looking for the top Colorado's floor coating solutions, make sure to do your research and choose a reputable company Updating or adding garage storage systems can also greatly appeal to buyers looking for extra space and organization. Even something as simple as a new, modern garage door can enhance curb appeal and increase your home's value in the eyes of potential buyers.
