How To Add Value To Your Home

Are you looking to increase the value of your home? Whether you’re wanting to sell in the near future, or just want to make some improvements for yourself, there are many ways to add value to your home. Check out our list of tips below to get started!

As top Philly Realtors, we get asked by potential home sellers daily if they should make fixes or upgrades to they’re homes before selling them. In yesterday’s market, we would tell home owners definitely make upgrades to increase the value of you’re home. However, in today’s market, it’s often not necessary and you will still get top value. There are some upgrades that will always increase you’re home’s value though.

The following upgrades add the most value to you’re home in most cases.

1. Landscaping, fencing and curb appeal
2. Upgrades that make your home look bigger and make spaces usable such as extra bathrooms, kitchen upgrades, adding space and storage to bedrooms, and the addition of an office or a gym.
3. Upgrades that bring more light in the home and make it seem larger such as a fresh coat of paint, new flooring, and new or larger windows.
