Newbie prepping for resale
Posted: Mon Mar 31, 2014 7:12 pm
I bought my first mobile home this past July. It's a 2003 Liberty. It was an "as-is" but functional. I'm having a house built and it will be ready at the end of August so I want to make my mobile attractive to buyers. The bathroom vanities are not the greatest quality, the kitchen counter laminate is peeling, and the kitchen cabinets are few and cheap looking. Vinyl sheet flooring and carpet were new when I bought it. Here are the questions I have:
What should I concentrate on upgrading that will make it more attractive without me wasting money?
If I replace the bathroom vanities, can I get regular ones from a place like Home Depot or do I have to get ones made especially for mobile homes?
Can I remove the laminate on the kitchen counter and replace it with new laminate or just get new counters?
Should I replace the cabinets? I can't really do much to improve them as they are.
Whomever patched the drywall did a horrible job. It's not smooth and you can see where they just globbed on putty. How can I fix that?
Thanks in advance!
