Summary: Making the right choices on high impact remodeling projects can significantly increase your home value while ensuring you experience and enjoy quality improvements.

As you step in to the New Year, the thoughts of spring and summer and spending quality time at home either indoors or outdoors is natural. Home renovation and improvement projects start running through your mind and the need to make decisions is addicting. However, as a home owner it is imperative you step back and evaluate some key basic decision thoughts that will enable these projects. Here are some basic questions to ponder:

1. What is my budget? How much am I willing to spend??

2. What will give my home the best bang for the buck?

3. How can our family enjoy these improvements?

4. Will the improvements increase the value of the home?

5. Does it increase curb appeal?

Your decision on specific projects can depend on the answers to one or all of the above questions. You do not necessarily have to answer yes to all of the above but having a realistic budget is critical.

Now that you have reached this point and have decided to proceed with some home improvement and home renovation, below are five high impact projects you can undertake that will definitely add value to your home and have you enjoy the improvement.

1. Interior or Exterior Painting: Freshen up your home and give it a new look. Painting inside or outside is a huge improvement that freshens and brightens up your home. Choose colors that are soft, flow well from room to room and tie in with accessories, furniture and architecture. Exterior painting should address shutters, front door, deck and trim utilizing vibrant colors.

2. Bathroom Remodeling: An easy improvement that can add significant value to the home is an upgrade of one or more bathrooms or the powder room. From a simple improvement that involves updated vanities or a shower redo, tub upgrade to a freestanding tub, upgraded tiling to a complete bathroom redo; a bath remodel is definitely a must improvement on your list of to-do’s.

3. Flooring Updates: High impact, significant visibility and easy improvement is achieved by addressing flooring needs. From refinishing your hardwoods or installing new hardwoods, tiling your kitchen or bathroom floors or installing quality carpet in the bedrooms; these are easy decision improvements any homeowner will enjoy for the duration of their stay in the house.

4. Fixtures and hardware upgrade: If your home is an older home and is dated or not reflecting consistency in current trends, the fastest and highly recommended improvement is upgrading your fixtures and hardware around the house. Choosing quality light fixtures for the bathrooms, breakfast and dining area; selecting coordinating hardware to blend well with modern looks; and interior paint colors and accessories can all definitely boost and enhance your home value with minimal impact to your budget.

5. Exterior Entertainment upgrades: This category of improvement is a high impact, high utility option that gives any homeowner the best return on investment. From installing a paver patio with a sitting wall, firepit, outdoor fireplace, outdoor kitchen, pergola, screened porch, expansive deck, landscaping, walkways or a combination of the above are all great options to have completed.
