Bathroom Renovation

While it’s inconvenient to be displaced from your bathroom, it’s so important to make sure your bath and shower spaces are as updated and modern as possible. Even if you can’t replace the tile, simple upgrades like swapping out fixtures can make a huge difference. The most important factor when upgrading your bathroom is to choose appliances and tile that make your bath spaces shine. Potential buyers want to see clean spaces, especially in the bathrooms.



Updated Kitchen Appliances

This seems like a small aspect to a renovation, but it’s one that can make a huge difference! Potential buyers love a fully equipped kitchen with new appliances. It eases their mind that they can move into a home and know that the appliances are not going to break down on them anytime soon. Plus, buying appliances from the same manufacturer means they can all match and make your kitchen space look more organized. 

Landscaping

Curb appeal is huge when it comes to updating your home! It’s your property’s first impression, so you’ll want to make it a good one. Updating your landscape can seem like an overwhelming task, but luckily, most local garden centers or landscape companies offer free estimates. Get a few quotes and hopefully some different design concepts from local companies, then get to work. If the grass in your yard needs work, consider installing sod or laying the right seed for your lawn. Update the color of your front door to add contrast to the greenery in your yard. If your garden beds are looking bare, consider adding new plantings and shrubs.



Deck or Patio Addition

Who doesn’t love to spend more time outside? Enhance your outdoor living by adding a deck or patio space in your home. If a wood deck is not an option, you can opt for a hardscape project to create an outdoor dining or lounge area. For homeowners who don’t have the space, consider updating your front porch with new lounge chairs and colorful planters. Try to make your outdoor living spaces as appealing as possible with small updates.



Replacement Windows

This may seem like a big investment, but it’s one that pays off. Updating your windows with new replacement windows is a big perk to a potential homebuyer. New windows can keep your spaces warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer months. Plus, that will save money on your electric and utility bills.
