Preparing to sell? Renovating is a great way to upgrade your home — and attract potential buyers.

Here are three do’s, according to Offerpad:

  • Add some curb appeal. A good power wash can go a long way.
  • Add new carpet + paint. They’re the easiest upgrades for the largest return.
  • Give the kitchen a minor upgrade. Simple changes like replacing worn-out counters, dated fixtures or old appliances can net sellers a ROI of up to 80%.

See the don’ts.
