When you’re selling a home in Tampa Bay, whether it’s in Pasco, Pinellas or Hillsborough County, these are three quick fixes you can do in a weekend to help improve your chances of selling quickly and at (or above) asking price.
3 Quick Fixes to Help You Sell Your Home in Tampa Bay
Check out these three simple fixes so you can tackle them before you list your home:
- Fix up your landscaping
- Paint as necessary
- Update your lighting
Fix Your Landscaping
Buyers start forming an impression of your home long before they set foot inside. In fact, they’re searching for your house as soon as they turn on the street – and the first impression they get when they see your yard comes with them into the house and contributes to their overall impression.
We can’t stress this enough: The first impression needs to be a good impression.
Clean up your yard, cut the grass, add some potted plants and update your outdoor furniture to give the entire space a fresh look.

Paint As Necessary
If your home’s interior or exterior paint is looking a little tired, freshen it up. Hire a professional if it’s a big job, though – you don’t want to take any unnecessary risks.
Buyers love seeing fresh paint on the walls, especially in neutral colors. Neutral tones make a home seem bigger, cleaner and more appealing, which means it’s easier for buyers to envision their own “stuff” in your space.
Update Your Lighting
If your light fixtures are dated (or if they just don’t put out enough light), it’s time for a quick upgrade. Buyers want well-lit places with modern fixtures – and remember, too, that good lighting enables buyers to imagine living there.
You can find modern, inexpensive light fixtures at any home improvement store, and they’re definitely worth the investment.
