4 Home Improvements To Increase The Value of Your Home
Your home is more than just your living space, it’s also an investment. From time to time you want to make improvements to your home that both increase your enjoyment of it and increase the value of the property so you can get a better return on that investment when you choose to sell down the road.
If you are looking to increase the value of your home without undergoing a major and costly renovation you can! There are many ways to increase value for under $10,000 you just have to be very targeted in what you are taking on. Here are a few suggestions…
Bathroom Update
One of the best and budget-friendly renovations you can undertake is a bathroom upgrade. Many people neglect the bathroom space leaving it with outdated tiling and fixtures in need of work. Your money will go farther here because the space is so small and it will impact your life everyday because it is a room that gets constant use! This is also a great project if you are looking to sell your home in a few years because it will be something that will stand out to buyers and increase your home’s value.
Open Up The Space
One way you can update your home without adding anything is by removing some walls! Can you create more open space? Do you have a lot of unnecessary, non-load bearing walls? If so, this is something that can radically transform your home. Not only does it make the space bigger but it brings in more light.
Switch To Hardwood
Do you have a lot of carpet? It’s time to get rid of it. A great project to take on if you are looking to increase your home’s value is adding hardwood floors and ditching carpeting where you can. Hardwood floors are much more sought after and hold up better in high traffic areas than carpet. You don’t have to go all out if your home is all carpet either! Start in the places where the foot traffic is the highest and the carpet is the most worn.
Add A Fresh Coat Of Paint
When was the last time the exterior of your home was painted? A fresh coat of paint can go a long way in making your home look fresh and new. This also applies to the interior as well. You can choose to go with another color entirely or just add another coat to refresh what is already there. A fresh coat makes a world of a difference!
Finding your next home can be stressful - but it doesn't have to be.
