Buyers are looking for ways to reconnect with family and friends and the dinning table is where they'll want to start. So if your dinning room is currently a work space, it's time to rethink it. 

2. Mismatched Kitchen Cabinets

Is your kitchen in need of a refresh? Whether with color or texture, mismatching lower cabinets or an island is an easy and low cost solution to the boring white kitchen.  

3. Mid Century Design Elements

In a time where most of our homes are littered with cords, remotes and screens, buyers are looking for spaces to unplug and relax. so look for ways to minimize or remove all evidence of technology in the living or family room. 

5. Large Formated Tile

and I mean large 12x24 size. So if you are considering a pre-listing bath renovation or need to refresh the floors, using large scaled tile is the update buyers want!
