Home remodelling projects
that pay for themselves
Published at
https://blog.winnipeghomefinder.com/remodelling-projects-recover-costs/
When choosing remodelling projects to
improve your home before sale, the main
question to ask yourself is “will they pay
off?”. Since you’re looking for ways to
enhance the value of your property right
before sale, you should go with im-
provements that will bring a higher re-
turn on investment.
Best Value Home Remodelling
Projects
A fresh coat of paint
Rarely is a home remodelling project as
affordable as painting the interior. At a
minimal price, you can create a brand-
new look in your home and appeal to a
great number of buyers. This is a simple
DIY project that will bring great value to
your home and it’s bound to pay off.
Mid-range bathroom remodels
The bathroom is an important area that
buyers pay attention to when considering
to buy a certain house. However, since
major remodels can cost a lot without
such a great return on investment, you
should opt for mid-range upgrades that
will give your bathroom a modern flair.
A functional layout, a new shower or
updated flooring are all great options.
Small-scale kitchen upgrades
When it comes to kitchen renovations,
they can cost you a fortune. However,
choosing minor remodelling projects can
style up your kitchen and enhance its
appeal, increasing your chances to re-
coup your investment. Replacing your
hardware, updating the kitchen cabinets
and introducing more storage solutions
are affordable, yet profitable solutions
when remodelling your kitchen for sale.
Solar panels
Installing solar panels is perhaps one of
the most expensive home remodelling
projects on the list. However, they bring
so many valuable benefits, including in-
creased savings and reduced energy
consumption. You’d be surprised by the
number of buyers who will gladly pay
more for an eco-friendly home with a
renewable energy system. The only
problem about this remodelling idea, as
well as other more expensive projects, is
their payment. Fortunately, there are
numerous low-rate personal loans that
you can apply for, which are a much bet-
ter solution than mortgage because you
don’t have to give a deposit or collateral.
Door and window replacement
Aside from affecting your home’s curb
appeal, your exterior doors and windows
have a major impact on the energy effi-
ciency of your home. If your doors and
windows are a bit run-down and have air
leaks around them, they are actually
causing major energy wastage. There-
fore, you should consider replacing
them or at least fixing them up. In addi-
tion, you should pay special attention to
your front door. Installing a new, steel
front door is one of the most profitable
home upgrades that brings a return on
investment of 90 per cent.
Updated floors
Prospective buyers will examine your
flooring carefully and thoroughly, so
make sure it’s in excellent condition. If
you have wall-to-wall carpeting, you
should consider removing it because
bare hardwood floors are the most
sought-after feature. However, if you
can’t afford hardwood floors, you can go
with wood veneer as a cost-effective, yet
appealing alternative.
Attic/basement conversions
Instead of wasting a fortune on a home
extension, you should consider convert-
ing your basement or attic into an addi-
tional bedroom, kids’ room, a home of-
fice, etc. It’s better to invest your money
in your existing space and make it us-
able than paying a sizeable amount on
extending your home, which typically
requires more work.
Landscaping improvements
Sprucing up your landscape will boost the curb appeal of your home significantly. The
best thing is that some ideas are completely cost-free. For instance, you can simply
mow your lawn, trim the bushes and trees and remove clutter from your yard. Of
course, you can try out some other options, such as installing outdoor lighting, creating
a garden path, planting wonderful flowers, etc. These simple ideas won’t cost you
much, but they will make your home’s exterior truly enchanting.
Wooden deck addition
Adding a wooden deck to your home is one of the most profitable remodelling
projects. Not only will it make your home more enjoyable, but it will also recoup
around 82 per cent of your initial investment. However, keep in mind that a composite
deck addition is less profitable than a wooden one, bringing a significantly lower ROI.
Thus, if your home lacks a beautiful outdoor area, you should definitely build a wood-
en deck. You should steer clear of backyard patios – they will recoup only 47 percent
of their cost.
Garage door replacement
Replacing your garage door is also on the list of the most profitable renovation ideas.
In fact, it actually brings a return on investment of around 98 per cent. Thus, if your
current garage door isn’t in such a great condition, you should definitely replace it.
You have a rage of options when it comes to styles, designs and materials that bring
variations in price. Of course, if your garage door functions perfectly, but simply has a
slightly worn-out look, you can just style it up by replacing the hardware and applying
a fresh coat of high-quality paint.
If you’ve decided to sell your home, it’s crucial that you take on certain remodelling
projects, but make sure to pick those that will enable you to recoup your investment.
