As far as the home is concerned - the kitchen is the center of the universe. It's where you gather, talk, help the kids with homework and eat standing up while you're looking for something to eat. Not to mention the fact that in most newer homes, the kitchen opens up to the main living area. So, it would logically follow that buyers are paying special attention to the kitchen these days.
That's why it needs to be up-to-par before you open up your home to potential buyers. Not enough cash to tear out the cabinets and start from scratch? No worries. You can update your kitchen by bringing in a little color and light (nothing some paint or a new light fixture can't handle) and changing the small things. Why replace perfectly good cabinets when changing out your pulls and hardware could do the trick? The key is making the small changes that will bring your kitchen up to date and catch the buyer's eye!
