Daily Real Estate News  |  May 4, 2007  |   $5 Ideas for Making a House More Appealing
Real estate professionals in Sacramento, Calif., say it only takes a $5 investment to do some quick makeovers to attract potential buyers. Here are five under $5 ideas:
  1. Give the trim around the front door a fresh coat of paint, covering up fingerprints and dings.
  2. Fertilize the grass so it looks bright green.
  3. Hang a small flag that says “Welcome.”
  4. Place a big pot of yellow marigolds in the foyer — yellow makes people feel comfortable.
  5. Dribble a few drops of vanilla on the oven door and turn it to low (it’ll smell just like cookies are baking).
