Home improvement projects aren’t just opportunities to upgrade your home. If you pick the right renovations, including ones you might not have thought of, such as replacing your garage door, you can get a high return on investment (ROI) when you sell your home. However, not all projects have the same financial impact. Here are a few to consider. 

Home Improvement Projects to Consider If You’re Selling

1. Kitchen Remodel

A full kitchen remodel is the perfect home improvement project for someone who enjoys cooking and wants to improve the value of their home. The average ROI for a kitchen remodel is around 80%. If you’re deciding what to re-do, focus on the cabinets, appliances, countertops, wall paint, trim, and ceiling for the best returns. 

2. Wood Deck

A beautiful wood deck will undoubtedly draw in many prospective buyers if you put your home on the market. Plus, the average ROI on a wood deck is around 75%, making it a worthwhile investment. Further, you will be able to enjoy the outdoors in a more comfortable setting. To increase the value of the deck, add features, such as a fire pit, built-in furniture, and built-in lighting.  

3. New Garage Door

The upfront cost of putting in a new garage is fairly low compared to other options, and the ROI is typically around 97%. To get high returns, however, it’s important to choose the right door for your needs. Pick a door that fits perfectly with the style of your home, has modern safety features, and is equipped with energy-efficient features, such as thermal seals. Steel is the most popular and cost effective. You can also get custom wood doors although those are more expensive and need to be maintained.
