2019 Home Remodeling Trends

2018 is quickly coming to an end and a new crop of homeowners will be thinking of selling their home in 2019. Since Tampa is in a pickle right now with many buyers and not enough homes, this will be welcomed. However, before you put any “for sale” signs up, take a look at the 2019 home remodeling trends that might be worth taking the time to do.

Update your features instead of your flooring

Putting in new flooring isn’t the daunting task it used to be. Now laminate flooring is weatherproof, water resistant, scratch resistant, and beautiful. So, instead of shelling out a pretty penny for new floors, update your features instead. And if you don’t have a feature then create one. This could be adding a fireplace to your home, creating a featured wall, creating an outdoor feature like an outdoor kitchen, and many more other trending updates.

Wallpaper is back, but use it wisely

Wallpaper is a great way to create a featured wall. There are many fantastic selections to choose from and it can be an inexpensive project. In fact, it can be something you do yourself. With the right tools and a little patience, wallpaper can transform and entire room. Be weary of putting up wallpaper in sensitive spaces, like bathrooms. Less is more when it comes to wallpaper. Use it to create accents and specific spaces rather than plaster and entire room.

The love is in the details

Pay attention to the details. You might be shocked at how different a new set of blinds opens up a whole room. Putting in new windows can completely transform a space but so can updated window trimming. A new set of window blinds next to a fresh coat of paint is like a whole new room.

You cannot avoid the curb appeal

No matter what you update on the inside of the home, you have to get people’s attention starting with the outside of the home. Curb appeal can be all the difference in getting people to tour your home and selling it faster. This can range from planting new plants or flowers to an entirely new landscape plan. Consider changing or painting your front door, painting the outside of the house, or creating new window complements. Anything that will make your house stand out will go a long way.
