Got the after holiday blues?
Do you feel a sense of let-down after too much food and fun?
If the answer's yes, jump into the New Year with an easy plan to add some pizazz to your Bahamas home.
Here are a few relatively easy solutions to give your home a face lift and protect your Bahamas property investment.
Paint!
This is an easy and affordable way to make a big impact. By doing the work yourself, you'll save in labour costs, work off some of those extra calories you packed on over the holidays and beautify your home.
Focus on your exterior trim
If this just isn't happening right now, concentrate on the trim around the doors and windows and the boxing under the eaves.
Contrast colours for depth and style.
Some of our older Bahamas homes are painted in beautiful pastels, such as pink shutters against pearl grey, or candy red against butter yellow, to conform to the colours of the islands.
Repaint your door
This relatively small job consistently ranks the highest in real estate cost versus value reports. Make your front door and entrance pop.
Working on your Bahamas home and seeing the results is a sure way to shake off holiday lethargy.
