Decorating Your Home to Increase Value

As a new year begins, many of us start to evaluate our lives and the direction we want to go in. If that direction doesn’t align with where we are now and where we seem to be going, a new year is a great time to start making changes. For some of us, that might mean moving to a new home, preparing for an eventual move, or turning a current home into a dream home. If you have any plans to sell your home, you might be hesitant to make changes or spend money on what you view as a temporary residence. However, making certain improvements to your home can actually increase its value. If you choose carefully, your investments will return a profit. Once you’ve upgraded your home, South Kendall Interiors can help you find the perfect window treatments to complement your new features.

Window treatments near Miami, Florida (FL), that help increase your home’s value.

Remodel

One of the most common ways to increase the value of your home is to renovate or remodel. The size of the project can range from small upgrades to a complete interior redesign. While a complete redesign could turn your current home into your dream home, that might be a daunting investment for one who plans to sell. But even small changes can make a big difference. One of the most well-known ways to improve your home’s value is by remodeling the kitchen or bathroom. A spacious kitchen with plenty of storage and modern appliances can make a home very appealing to most buyers. Even if you can’t increase the size of your kitchen, adding the right cabinetry and maximizing space can have a big impact. If you finish it with the right colors and window coverings, you can create a welcoming and opening feel as well.

A Few Tweaks

Some minor changes can help improve the first impression a prospective buyer gets from your home, such as window treatments, paint, and fixtures. If you have a painted exterior, repainting or touching up some rough spots can add to the curb appeal and make a buyer feel pretty excited to explore the space. You’ll also want to touch up the paint in high traffic areas inside your home to meet the expectations that the exterior may set. If you have hardwood floors, refinishing them can create a nice, new updated feel throughout your home as well. New windows can open up a space for added value. Updated fixtures can also make a space feel more modern and luxurious.

Energy Efficiency

Another valuable improvement you can make is increasing the energy efficiency of your home. You can do this by installing energy efficient windows to help save on heating and cooling costs all year. Not only can energy efficient windows increase the value of your home, but they can also add to the curb appeal. Taking the time to select a well-designed window that will offer flexibility in letting in air is also a good idea to increase value.
