This goes for everything in your home, from floors to walls, inside and out. If you are a competent Do It Yourselfer thats fine, but remember people are paying for your house. So its worth getting some jobs done by a professional if you are just not competent.
If we look at tiling as an example, look at the picture below
This a a classic example of bas tiling, you can clearly see the tiles are not inline, and in a whole bathroom thiss effect is magnified by multiple errors.
Don't Do It YourSelf
So if you are not competent at doing a task, where it is jsut repainting a room, to laying a new carpet. Then get someone else to do it.This fits with other tips, in that although decorating or replacing carpets will not add any value to your house, it will help it sell. So you will get any money back you put into your house, so go nuts.
Quality Sells
People will buy quality so making your house stand out from the crowd is extremely important, making it as close to a show home is vital , especially when the house is one of the largest purchases people will ever make, they are willing to pay for quality.
So look around your house and be honest with yourself, if you cant do something to a high standard, get someone else to do it.
