New Door Knobs make the difference.

Updating the look of your home is easier than you think. Think new door knobs.

When we we looking at purchasing a new home, the many properties that we viewed were in the 12-15 year range and showed some wear. I am a detail person, and when I grabbed the door handle to open a door and it was wobbly. I was immediately turned off. I had my multi-tool on me and I whipped out the screw driver and tightened one. It frustrated me so. No, we did not buy the house!

That is one thing that is nice about viewing a new home is the crispness that you feel when you open the front door, and the other interior doors. If you are looking resell, a good investment in the "feel" of you home is new door knobs. The style that was hot 15 years ago is outdated now. And there are so many new options out there.

I had a contractor tell me that one thing he does when he buys a home to resell. One of the first thing he does is repaint the doors and install new hardware. These are the parts of the home that get the most use and show wear very quickly. Replacing an repainting these will give the prospective buyer a more crisp, new feel.

This holds true if you just want to revamp your present house. It is a detail that stuck out like a sore thumb to me. Remember I might be looking at your home.
