Going Boujie on a Budget

July 16, 2024

In real estate, we’ve seen impactful upgrades that give a home a fresh look while still being easy on the wallet.

These are a few of our favorite budget-friendly fixes:

  • Replace faucets and cabinet hardware. Estimated cost: $150-$400 for a kitchen faucet and $5-$25 per cabinet pull.
  • Upgrade door knobs and hardware. Estimated cost: $28 per passage door and $31 per privacy lock.
  • Swap builder-grade switch plates for decorative ones. Estimated cost: $5-25 per plate, depending on style.
  • Refresh rugs. Estimated cost: $189 for a 5×8 rug (check out our rug-picking guide).

We are a huge proponent of making small changes that go a long way.

Ready to take on some projects and not sure where to focus your efforts? Reach out, we’d love to help educate and answer questions you might have for getting more bang for your buck.

Radical responsibility is a tough one, but wow does it change everything. When I take full ownership of even the smallest part I play in a situation, it pulls me out of blame and frustration and puts me back in a place of growth and clarity.
If you’re wanting to feel lighter and more empowered, try it. Even just once. It’s amazing what shifts when we decide to own our part and move forward.
