At Selling Shuswap, we love helping clients get the most of their home sales. Here are some exterior home improvements that can increase resale value.
- Repaint your exterior: Painting your home bright green is a sure-fire way to get the attention of your neighbors and buyers, but we recommend going the safer route with warm and neutral colors.
- Replace your front door: If your front door allows air to get in, or if the locks or handles are loose, maybe replace the door or the fixtures. This will not only help save on the energy bill, but it will also boost your home’s curb appeal.
- Pressure Wash: A pressure washer can produce the best bang for your buck. Pressure washing is a low-cost way to strip dirt from driveways and walkways, clean windows, and depending on the siding a nice way to clean up your entire home’s exterior.
- Add, replace, or fix your fence: Many homeowners like the security and privacy of an attractive fence. The cost varies depending on the size of your backyard or property, but often homeowners can see a 100% return on resale if they update their home with a nice, well-built fence.
- Updating Windows: Some old windows can definitely add character to a home, but those single pane windows aren’t great for security, energy savings, are more prone to leaking, and may not be as functional compared to their newer counterparts.
- Landscaping: From simple jobs like keeping your lawn in control, to adding beautiful flowers, lighting, trees, plants, and mulch. Landscaping can leave a great lasting impression and upgrade your curb appeal for relatively inexpensive work.
