You can handle repainting your porch on your own. Use paint that is specified for exteriors and is of good quality. But be sure to use a paint with the same base as the old paint, i.e. oil over oil-based, and water (latex) over water-based paint. An oil-based paint is better for trims and will last a long time but you should use a water-based paint for decks or floors since oil-based paint can become slippery in the winter.

Don't buy furnishings with busy patterns. Bold geometrics, loud florals and colorful patterns will limit your decorating choices. Purchase furniture in solid, basic colors such as tan, black, blue, brown and green. In this way, you can change accessories frequently for a fresh new look. If you want patterns, use pillows and throw blankets to have patterns but also design control.

Upon selling a home, every part of the home should have a clearly defined purpose. For example, a dining room should stand out as a dining room, and if you've converted a bedroom to an office, you should convey that. When you do this, each room in the house looks more comforting and comfortable to live in. Well defined spaces makes a house attractive, and it will be easier to sell.

While you might be courting the prospect of installing a traditional fireplace to help heat your home, this could be a bad decision. Wood fireplaces are not very efficient; even though, they're quite attractive. Unfortunately, the majority of the heat goes up the chimney. These types of fireplace also require fresh air, which is provided by your home. This means that there will be less breathable oxygen in the air.
