A CASE FOR SPACE AND S CE AND STORAGE
Creating space and offering sufficient and creative storage solutions can win over the hearts of buyers. According to a NAR® survey, most home buyers preferred more and improved closet space and other storage options and solutions. Consider the following stats that show what buyers are looking for in a home when it comes to space:
93% of buyers wanted a laundry room. 90% wanted a bathroom linen closet. 86% wanted garage storage. 85% wanted a walk-in kitchen pantry.
Which of these do you already have? Where could you make inexpensive and simple improvements to ensure your prospective buyers see that you have the space they need to store all their possessions in an organized manner? Closet space is the most significant factor for buyers regarding space and storage solutions. And building a simple closest is easier (and less expensive) than you might think! If you are moderately handy (or know someone who is) and have the room, build an essential closet or two! The ROI on closet space is often significant. If you’re selling an older home, where closet space is typically minimal (often the case with homeowners who are downsizing), this will help! If the rooms in your home are already small, you might not want to take any square footage away from them. However, existing closets can be updated to maximize space. Consider investing in closet organizers to make the most of what you have.
