Peel-and-Stick Updates to Help Sell Your Albuquerque Home
If your Albuquerque home is old and in disrepair, getting it ready for the market can be tough in many ways. As is, you may be able to sell it, but at a much lower price than what you wanted.
'Band-Aid solutions' are temporary solutions; they may not provide the ideal or permanent solution that a kitchen renovation would, but they are intended to be done more quickly and be less expensive.
When it comes to getting your home ready for company or selling your house, you have a few options for making it look good without spending a lot.
Peel-and-stick wallpaper
For those who don't want to commit to a particular look for decades - or who do not want to take down a permanent wall covering - peel-and-stick wallpaper is the perfect option. The use of graphic patterns, florals, or even faux wood grain can create a focal point or transform a room.
Peel-and-stick backsplash
For backsplashes, peel-and-stick works too, and it's not just for renters looking to add a little style to their rented space.
Carrera marble will look amazing, classic subway tile will give your kitchen a classic feel, and weathered quartz will give your kitchen a natural feel. You can put it up in no time, and take it down just as quickly when you're ready for something new.
Floating floor
Floating floors, which are floors that go over another floor, are somewhat more maintenance-intensive than peel-and-stick materials, but they are still easier than other flooring options. You may be able to do it yourself on your own, and very affordably, if you have some skill and inclination to DIY.
Additionally, both natural hardwood and engineered wood floor planks-not to mention cork, ceramic tiles, and vinyl—are now also available in floating versions, which can be easily assembled by aspiring homeowners.
Peel-and-stick countertops
Using a PVC vinyl base, peel-and-stick countertops can make your home look more updated at a fraction of the cost of traditional countertops. These countertops are not best for high-traffic areas due to their durability (or lack thereof), but they can serve as a temporary makeup makeover for spaces you don't own, don't use often, or can't afford to renovate yet.
So yes, you can update your Albuquerque home on a budget and in little time, with just a bit of peel-and-stick.
