Do you want to make your home more appealing to sell, or just want to spruce it up? Deciding how much time, effort, and money to invest in making improvements requires careful consideration before you start hiring contractors or doing the work yourself. An improvement is anything that enhances the value of your home, prolongs its life, or adapts it to new uses. As a REALTOR®, I’m familiar with the homes in your area and their market value. I’m a great resource for determining what improvements could be the most advantageous, especially if you’re planning to sell your home.

If you make too many costly improvements, your home could become overpriced for the neighborhood—you won’t get a return on your investment and instead may lose money. If you choose colors and designs based strictly on your own preferences rather than those that are neutral for mass appeal, your improvement may become a deterrent for buyers. You could do too much—or too little.
