Give Potential Buyers Something to Talk About
Is interior trim really that important?
Buyers are constantly looking for things that make a house a home, and because of this sellers are constantly finding ways to make their property seem more appealing. Staging furniture is good, and a new coat of paint may be even better. These things really do help sell a home. But how do they compare with installing custom fitted wood moldings in the prominent areas of a home?
Painting and staging a house are more than acceptable tactics in the market today, but these are the same tactics that your competitors are using! It is getting easier for people to see through these strategies to the real value and comfort of a home. Because honestly, how well a home is staged and a fresh coat of paint doesn't really add value to a home! Now these things may entice people to spend a little more on a home, but in essence don't really add much value.

These things sway buyers because they know that after their purchase when the furniture is gone, and the walls are repainted, they will still be able to enjoy the elegance and richness of their interior moldings!
The Curse of the Identical Home
Have you ever had a listing in a subdivision or townhome community and had to compete with half a dozen of the same model? It is times like these that you might find yourself scraping for ways to make your listing pop. But instead of suggesting a price reduction (nobody likes these) suggest getting custom moldings installed in their home.
Consider this further - Instead of lowering the price of your listing five thousand dollars, this money is spent to get an interior molding upgrade. You have now separated your listing apart from the other models in the area. Sure, your client spent five thousand dollars, but their listing price stayed the same, and it is likely that you will see increased interest in your listing vs. the others in the area.
The power of interior moldings vs. other possible home upgrades is that moldings are better at creating a rich and elegant space for a fraction of the price of other treatments. New hardwood floors, new windows, new shingles . . . those things are great but cost tens of thousands of dollars. With interior moldings you get more 'bang' for your buck!
Interior Moldings are a Sound Investment
It may seem strange to spend that amount of money on installing moldings throughout a house, but remember that moldings add value to the property. When it comes time to close it's not your client that paid for the moldings, it's the buyer!
