Are you planning to sell your house?
Have you thought about getting a few things repaired and replaced to increase your property value?
If not, we suggest you do so now because the dollars you will spend on our recommended areas will help you increase the ROI of your house.
When considering any home renovation project, make sure that the ideas in your mind suit the house’s structure. One of the most common mistakes homeowners make is spending hundreds of dollars on unnecessary renovations. For example, not all buyers will like a swimming pool in the backyard because first, it’s costly to maintain, and second, it sets you apart from the comps.
So, what kinds of renovations are acceptable? Let’s take a look at them:
Steel Door for Your Entryway
Repainting your front door promises a high ROI. However, replacing it with a steep option is way more lucrative. It not only makes a statement when potential buyers enter the house but also offers security. If this door material does not suit your exterior, you can choose fiberglass instead.
Window Replacement
Nowadays, many homeowners are opting for frameless glass for windows. This window type is easy to install, offers optimum light, and adds a contemporary, chic element to your house. Potential buyers will take note of the new windows immediately. So, make sure they are spotless.
Adding a Deck
If you have a 2-story family house, installing a deck in the backyard is great. A deck made of pure wood is the best option. However, other affordable materials include timber, composite lumber, wood-plastic composite, and stone.
Each material has its pros and cons, so look them up online. If you live in a flood zone, consider installing an aluminum deck. Though this is the most expensive decking material, it will be a plus point during the house tour when you point out it won’t warp or rot.
Smart Home Technology
In this world of technology, everyone has become accustomed to smart options. There are smart devices that detect leaks and carbon monoxide, connect different appliances that you can activate using your mobile, and lights that you can open with a clap or voice command. As time passes, demand for smart technology will only rise, making it a great renovation option.
Repainting Walls
A fresh coat of paint gives your house a new life. The interior matters as much as the exterior. The latter makes a good first impression, and the former helps cement the buyer’s decision that this is a good house.
You can do many more home renovation projects on your own, such as repainting the cabinets, replacing the light bulbs, changing small fixtures and hardware, and adding attic insulation to increase your property value.
