Well, we’re not going to lie, it can be very hectic and nerve-racking doing your first remodeling project. Nevertheless, we have compiled a list of upgrades you can start with to up the value of your home.

Remodeling the kitchen

The kitchen is one of the most used rooms in the house. If you are planning a Vienna remodeling, it is best to include this on your list. Note that even a simple kitchen remodel can increase your return on money by 80.5%. You can reface the cabinets, install new countertops, or even add a new fixture, such as a sink or faucet.

Adding energy-efficiency windows

As we move forward to a more modern world, the market continues to provide us with various products that will help with so many house renovations; an example would be energy-efficiency windows. Replace that drafty single-pane windows with one that helps lower your monthly bills is never a bad idea.

Replacing your garage door

Here’s an upgrade that is commonly neglected: replacing your garage door. The garage is a room that helps keep safe your car and lawn equipment. Plus, a new garage door helps boost your curb appeal, making your ROI a lot higher.

Fixing or adding a working fireplace

Whether or not your house originally has a fireplace, a good idea for a home upgrade is to ensure that it’s working. Did you know that for every working fireplace in your house, you add value to it by 12%?

Finishing your basement

In Vienna, there are a lot of houses with unfinished basements. While the basement is often used for storage, finishing this up can add value to your house should you choose to sell it, especially if you have a game room or TV room in your basement.

Adding a stone veneer to the front of your house

In any midrange home in Vienna, the cost to replace a 300-square-foot area of existing vinyl siding with stone veneer costs about $8,000 or so. However, this can recover about 97% of the house’s resale value. This is according to the 2018 Cost vs. Value Report by Remodelling magazine. If you think this house upgrade is not worth it, think of the high return on investment!

Touching up your exterior paint

For our last point, this doesn’t require much money to do but if you are low on budget, you may want to consider touching up your exterior paint. Remember, a simple touch up on flaking or chips can do wonders, not to mention, it can also help remove dirt and mold, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing and newer look.
