Top 7 Upgrades That Actually Add Value to Your Home

BLOG COVER PHOTOS

Not all upgrades are created equal. Here are 7 smart improvements that can increase your home’s resale value and help it sell faster – without wasting time or money on the wrong things.

1. Curb Appeal

Fresh mulch, trimmed bushes, and a clean front door go a long way.
ROI: Up to 7-10% boost in perceived value.

2. Paint (Interior + Front Door)

Fresh, neutral tones throughout. High-contrast doors (like black) add style and pop.

3. Lighting

Swap out dated fixtures for modern, energy-efficient lighting.
Brighter spaces feel bigger and more inviting.

4. Kitchen Touch-Ups

New cabinet hardware, fresh grout, updated faucets = big impact without a full reno.

5. Bathrooms Sell Homes

Clean caulking, mirrors, and lighting can totally refresh a bathroom.
Consider upgrading vanities if outdated.

6. Flooring Consistency

Replace old carpet or mismatched flooring with LVP or hardwoods.
Uniform floors = cleaner, higher-end look.

7. Decluttering + Staging

It’s free, but makes your home feel 30% bigger.
Remove personal items, maximize space.

Final Tip:
Every home is different, and not all upgrades are worth it in every situation.
