Does Your Kitchen Suck?

Okay, so maybe that’s a bit harsh. But ask yourself honestly, “Is it true?” Because buyers will most certainly notice if it does. And it could mean the difference between selling your home or not. As I mentioned in a previous post, I don’t think that a few strategically placed personal photos will kill a sale but a sucky kitchen will, hands down.


Take a look at this article for some quick fixes on what to do with your severely outdated kitchen.




About a year ago I was in a kitchen that had the awful fluorescent lights the above article talks about, dark brown and very dated cabinets and then the worst part was a fiberglass cutting board that was permanently embedded in the countertop that came with tips on cutting meat and vegetables. It screamed circa 1980. There were several tiles on the floor that were cracked as well.


The sad part is the family room had brand new carpeting, and the dining room and living room had brand new hard wood flooring. There were some very nice aspects to this home. But the kitchen just stuck out like a giant sore thumb.


The even sadder part is that it’s now on the market again, as a lender owned property.
