Big Help For A Tiny Home Enhance color, increase light to make a big impact  Before The real estate agent for a tiny home called wanting help preparing it for sale. The homeowners had moved out of state and had turned over the home-sale preparation to her. Renters had been living there for a while but hadn’t taken care of the place. Fortunately, the renters would be out before the house went up for sale, so we didn’t have to inconvenience them or work around their possessions. (If you own a rental, it’s usually best to show the house after they’ve moved out. Renters aren’t always motivated to keep the place looking spiffy.) The agent asked me to look over the property and coordinate preparation to get it ready for sale. There were several obstacles to making the house appealing: It was very small (850 square feet) and had a dated kitchen and bath. We also had a limited budget and very little time. Since kitchens are one of the major selling points, we had to really work to make this one acceptable. Sometimes that’s all you can do – make the room attractive enough for buyers to think, “I can live with this until I tear it up and remodel it!” Before  After • The cabinets were dingy and the hardware was dated and rusting. • The puffy window coverings blocked light and wouldn’t be appeal to most buyers. • The renters loved anything Egyptian. The counters were littered with King Tut and mini-sarcophagi. Fortunately, when they moved out we were left with empty countertops. But how can you play up 50-year-old tile and limited countertop space? After • I chose a brighter white to repaint the cabinets. It was a quick, inexpensive job, as the painters only had to apply one coat and left the doors on while painting. I selected black handles and knobs ($0.99 and $0.50 each!) to coordinate with the black stripe on the tile black splash. •Everyone wants a cheerful kitchen, so it’s important to let in as much light as possible. Removing the valance brightened the room and made it look larger. • My technique for creating spacious-looking countertops is to remove everything and then reload them with a color-coordinated “vignette” in each zone. This causes the eye to rove from zone to zone, picking up on the space in between and the color harmony that is created. This little kitchen had three zones and yellow-and-black tile, so I selected yellow, black and red accessories to enhance the color.
