Renovations can be a daunting task. If your goal is to increase your property value, smaller upgrades can provide a higher return on your investment.
Here are some budget-friendly projects for key areas of your home that can boost your property value:
Kitchen
You don’t need a complete remodel to increase the value of this space – it can be as simple as focusing on one thing, such as cabinets or countertops. Refacing old cabinets by adding a fresh coat of paint, a new finish, or updated knobs can bring new life to your kitchen. Adding new granite countertops is an easy way to modernize an older kitchen. Make sure to choose a countertop that fits with the price point and aesthetic of your home.
Bathroom
The bathroom is where most of us begin and end our day; modernizing it is a great way to increase your property value. New floors or shower tiles will give the illusion of a complete makeover. Updating the vanity, sink or mirror is also an inexpensive option. Smaller bathroom projects like these can have high appeal to future buyers.
Windows
These are often overlooked in renovations. However, upgrading windows is a great idea for both aesthetic and energy-saving purposes. In cooler climates, you can purchase windows with insulating properties, and in warmer climates, you can purchase those that reflect sunlight.
Deciding on the right budget to suit your needs can be hard, but worrying about the financing shouldn’t hold you back. For an easy way to finance these renos, check out The Home Depot Project Loan, available across Canada.
