To refresh a room, it’s not always necessary to fully redecorate. Here are a few simple things you can do to update a room:

  1. Paint it – Perhaps the most obvious. A fresh coat of paint in a new colour can completely change the mood of a room.
  2. Put something new on the wall – Switch up the art or photographs hanging on the walls for a new feel.
  3. Get some new textiles – New curtains, new cushion covers or a new rug are all easy ways to alter a room.
  4. Add an accent wall – With either a coat of paint or some bold wallpaper, an accent wall is a quick way to add personality to a room.

SURREY, BC – The Fraser Valley market showed early signs of a spring thaw in February, with sales increasing over January, but continuing to trail typical levels for this time of year. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board recorded 843 sales on its Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) in February, a 36 per cent increase from January, but 38 per cent below the ten-year seasonal average. New listings declined nine per cent in February to 2,796, suggesting some sellers are choosing to wait amid competitive inventory levels, and may be positioning their homes for the peak of the spring market.
