When you're getting ready to sell but don't have a lot of money for hone improvements, here a few inexpensive improvements for the outside of your home that you can do for less than $500:
  • Keep the lawn mowed, preferably on the diagonal.
  • Plant yellow flowers such as marigolds along the walk or by the front door. The color yellow sells.
  • Wash the exterior windows.
  • Paint or replace the front door and buy new hardware.
  • Power spray the house to get rid of dirt and cobwebs.
  • Buy a new welcome mat for the front steps.
  • Paint or replace the mailbox.
  • Paint your house number on the curb or buy a plaque displaying your house number and install near the entry.
  • Wash or replace a front porch light fixture.
