Our plan to fix up and sell the house, part 3

May 5th, 2014 at 03:22 am

Once we finished the walk-through, we decided what we could start working on in the next three months, and what would wait until we had a firm idea of when we'd move out:

Action Plan

May
Buy paint & start painting (take down bedroom shelves)
Start renovating bathroom & kitchen (see walk-through notes) -- look for new flooring at Henn. store
Hem/separate curtains
Declutter; put stuff in closet for garage sale

June
Finish renovating bathroom & kitchen
Declutter more
Start boxing things (books, etc.) and storing under bed/in hall closet
Put in new light fixtures: kids' room, bedroom, dining room
Get matching door handles for entryway

July
Install new bedroom closet doors
Install new balcony door
Replace laminate countertop for living room built-in
Fix bedroom cable connection
Replace window? (ask Kristen if will pass inspection)
Clean inside entryway light fixtures

Things to do when we start to move
Fix hardwood flooring everywhere
Ditch entryway chair, rug, stuff on/in cabinet, reduce DVD collection; new carpet/vinyl for closets
Keep entryway bookcase, cabinet, closets
Get dummy linens, products
Clean but keep bedroom window blinds, inside closet shelves, mirror
Ditch bedroom chairs, dressers, desk, bookcase, lights, art
Get dresser, night table, bed?, art, floor lamp, plant?
Get dummy bathroom linens/art/plant?
Ditch everything in kids' room(including light fixture)
New kids' room curtains, rug?
Move desk & chair, file cabinet?, bookcase or magicker or record cabinet to kids' room
Ditch record cabinets & mirror in hallway
Get new hallway mirror? or art? or keep plain?
Get dummy kitchen dishes; see what we can save:
Bowls, plates, cake stand, KitchenAid, fruit bowl
Ditch dining room magicker (could use elsewhere), sewing cabinet
Keep dining room mirror, table (turn 90 degrees), chairs (refinish?)
Get dummy dining room table runner, place settings, flowers

Put out balcony table & chairs
Empty balcony closet; clean and save shelves
