10. Flooring
Get that new carpet and linoleum down. A 1/2" 6 pound rebond pad is a little thicker and costs just a little more than regular pads (about $30 more for a 1500 square foot house), but it makes the carpet feel so much more luxurious when you walk on it. Be sure you bring the buyer's attention to it when they look at the house. That's one of the ways we sell the value of the house and overcome objections to the price of the property.
