Select a rich, dark stained wood or bold white door to draw attention to the main entry and add personality to your home. If your door is already in great shape, consider a simple replacement of weak or older-looking hardware that will impress buyers at first sight.

Next, if you can’t afford to add new cabinetry, change out the hardware so the knobs, drawer pulls and handles match your decor and add a modern flair. Adding technologydriven fixtures, including built-in water filtration systems, garbage disposals and high-tech faucets is

rooms appear larger and more open.

Step on it.

Flooring is one of the first things that potential homebuyers notice. Make sure you dust, vacuum and clean so that you show off the flooring to its best advantage. If you have carpet, consider replacing it with wood floors or wood alternatives. If you already have hardwood floors, polish and protect your flooring so that it gleams when potential buyers step into the home. Whether you’re trying to sell your home this winter or simply want to update its look, you don’t have to wait until the spring thaws. When the cold weather drives you inside, take advantage of the time to make attractive upgrades that can increase the appeal and value to your home.

We are celebrating The Maine & New Hampshire Buyer’s Guide to Real Estate & Home Improvement’s 25th anniversary this year! As Mt.

It’s been great!

I would like to thank Karla Ficker and Cindy O’Connor for their support and encouragement when I purchased the magazine 8 years ago, our wonderful customers and clients who have become so much more than just cusotmers and clients to me. Erin Bott of Silverline Graphics & Sean Bossie of Four Signals Media thanks for the 10-minute rule. Sandy Callahan of Solution Racks and Bill Collins, thank you for all your hard work delivering on our promise to deliver a top-quality magazine each and every month despite snow, sleet, feezing rain & blistering heat!
