Home renovations are a great way to make your house more functional. You'll enjoy having more living space or a personal spa for a bathroom. However, these renovations can also increase property value. According to Today's Homeowner, these projects' average return on investment is 69% nationally. These are some of the best projects and ways a remodeling contractor can help you increase property value.

Basement Finishing

A finished basement is a beautiful way to increase the value of your home. Finished basements provide the additional living space you need to increase the square footage in a real estate listing. A basement area can easily be used as an entertainment, extra bedroom, or family room. Often, these rooms are large, making them highly versatile.

Hardwood Floors

A remodeling contractor specializing in interior projects can often install new flooring. Hardwood floors are a great way to increase your property value. The return on investment is so high that most homeowners make a profit. Hardwood flooring is often made from a sustainable source, making the house more appealing to buyers who want to be more environmentally friendly. It is also low maintenance and great for people who have allergies.

Kitchen Remodels

The kitchen is the most popular remodeling area in the house. This room offers a massive return on investment. Energy-efficient appliances, granite countertops, and ample storage space instantly make a home more appealing to potential buyers. A new kitchen makes the house appear more well-kept, increasing perceived home value. Most homeowners can recoup a significant portion of their money on big-ticket items like windows and appliances.

Bathroom Remodels

Bathroom and kitchen remodels offer the highest return on investment because they increase property value more. Specific bathroom paint colors, such as powder blue, offer a more significant return on investment than other colors. Bathroom upgrades like a modern vanity or dimmable lighting can create the ideal aesthetic that matches the rest of the house. You can also include accessibility features, like a walk-in shower, to make the home more appealing to various populations.
