Prepping a home to sell
wrote:
You dont want to over improve, but if the kitchen cabinets are shabby
nice low cost ones might be in order.
I suggest the original poster go look at a few homes in their existing
neighborhood that are for sale, lie and say your checking for a out of
state friend
Check condition price etc, see what others are up to.
You can be checking out realtors while your at it, if your going to use
one to sell your home
the more educated you are + better sales!!
On the stuff you asked about
1) The attic
Prime w/ Zinsser Cover Stain & then top coat white or off white

2) Kitchen.
Clean & repaint MAYBE new pulls.............keep it simple
3) Wallpaper.
Remove it or leave.
DO NOT PAINT OVER! Gives the impression that you cut corners & brings
up the question where else?
This stuff works like magic.....almost fun to use (in a sick sorta way)
