Low budget = high impact!!
Here are some things you can do to improve your home value, with little or no cost:
- Curb appeal – No question that shrubs and colorful plants will add curb appeal to any home, but when shopping at your local garden center, make sure that you “think green.” Purchase plants that are native to your region or plants that are drought-tolerant; these require less water and maintenance, which means more savings to you and more green in your wallet.
- Bathroom upgrades – Bathroom updates are always a smart move. Even if you can’t afford a full remodel, small changes such as replacing dated wallpaper with a faux or textured finish and replacing old lighting fixtures will update the room without denting your wallet.
- Small details – Not every home improvement is cosmetic. Deteriorating roofs, termite infestation, or outdated electrical systems — you can’t fix it if you don’t know it’s broken. Hire an inspector to check out the areas of your home that you don’t normally see.
- Fresh paint – One of the simplest, most cost-effective improvements of all is paint! Freshly painted rooms look clean and updated or painted cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom can give a newly updated look!
