STRIP WALLPAPER AND PAINT
Transform a house by painting the interior. Forget conservative white or beige and pick brighter, more visually engaging colors to grab a buyer’s interest. It can be a DIY project — just be prepared to put in some long hours. Budget at least $100 a room to cover the cost of paint, bucket, brushes, painter’s tape, tarps, and other materials. Plan to add a few dollars if there is wallpaper to strip, and add stripping gel, a scoring tool, and a putty knife to the shopping list.
