View on Amazon →Home Repair & Touch-Ups
Small visible repairs signal a well-maintained home and remove buyer objections before they form. Inspectors flag these too — better to address them first.

View on Amazon →Covers scuffs, chips, and marks on walls, trim, and baseboards. Match your existing color or use a neutral white to freshen up trim before listing.
