Costs to consider before the sale

 
Before putting your home for sale, you should ensure that it will sell for the highest amount possible. To do so, you have to invest in the presentation of the property. Even though doing things yourself is less expensive, hiring experts can be more efficient. Here are some examples of things you should do, and how much they would cost.
 

Painting

 
Adding a fresh coat of paint can help raise the value of your home. Any reliable and experienced real estate agent would agree. It gives a fresh, new look that potential buyers want. If you choose to do it by yourself, it will only cost you the paint. But, if you choose to work with professional painters, you might end up paying 3$ per square foot. That can end up being quite a large amount, so it is one of the costs to consider before the sale of your California house. Nova Real Estate has many reputable contractor connections to help you with estimates and scheduling. This will greatly reduce the stress of selling.
