When it comes to home remodeling, it is often difficult to know where to begin, especially if you are doing the updates to help sell your home.
Below are 4 ideas that can add value to your home, and are classed as “must-haves” to every potential buyer.
Updating The Kitchen
A kitchen is still the most used room in a house. And updates can be as small as new hardware on cupboards and drawers, to total remodels that include new flooring, appliances, and countertops.
If you are upgrading appliances, find energy-efficient ones, as they will save you money until you sell your house, and, they are seen as an asset to potential buyers.
Updating Bathrooms
These are the second most used rooms, so you need to be sure that they are appealing. For example, adding better lighting, a nice faucet, and a crisp fresh coat of paint will do wonders for a bathroom.
Adding A Powder Room Or Another Full Bathroom
Speaking of bathrooms, if you add either a powder room or a full bathroom to your home, you can recoup anywhere from 80-130% of your investment. However, there is a catch! You should only add one so long as it does not mean sacrificing bedroom space.
Reducing the amount of bedroom space by adding a bathroom can often reduce the overall value of a home. However, if you have empty space that is not being used, such as under the stairs, then definitely consider adding another bathroom.
Building A Deck
Adding a deck to your yard is another good way that you can increase the usable space of your home without taking over the whole backyard. Decks appeal to people that love to entertain, and don’t like to garden so much.
