1. Hire a Pro
Consider hiring a pro to take a look at your home and offer advice. One morning spent with a home inspector, a real estate agent or a local designer can give you insight into what potential buyers will see when they look at your home — and can save you money in the long run.

2. Invest Early ...
A beautifully landscaped yard with gorgeous, mature shade trees can be a big selling point, but you'll need to allow for at least several years of growth to make the most of your investment. Make planting a priority early on, and be sure to seek out expert advice on the proper placement and care of your trees and yard.

3. Power Wash Pa...
Giving your home's exterior and paved areas a power wash can be nearly as dramatic as repainting, for a much lower cost. Rent a machine from your local hardware store if you don't have one.

4. Maintain Gree...
Sad, neglected lawns are a major turnoff to potential buyers. Maintaining a healthy lawn from the beginning with regular care is the least expensive route, though laying new sod can be worth the dramatic improvement in curb appeal if you don't have time to start from seed.

5. Upgrade Exter...
Curb appeal will help sell your house; it's as simple as that. And the way your home looks from the outside depends a lot on the condition of your front door (and the garage door, if it's visible from the street).

6. Remove Eyesor...
Outdated wallpaper, tacky light fixtures, stained carpets and popcorn ceilings are all good candidates for updating. The replacements need not be high-end; just think clean, simple and contemporary.

7. Minor Kitchen...
If your kitchen is fairly current, you may want to leave it alone — remodeling a kitchen comes with a hefty cost, and you may only be able to recoup around 65 percent of your investment. Smaller updates such as painting or refinishing cabinets that are still in good shape, or upgrading to Energy Star appliances, can refresh your kitchen's look at a fraction of the cost.
