High ROI Home Renovations That Maximize Your Spring Sale

It’s a great idea to freshen up your home before listing it, especially with the spring selling season fast approaching. We all know that first impressions matter, especially when selling a house, because you want potential buyers to feel like they’re stepping into a well-cared-for home.

But before spending money on home renovations, consider your return on investment (ROI). If you’re spending money to update your home, you want to make sure you’ll get that investment back, or even more, when you sell. Small updates can make a big difference.

For guidance, check the graph below, which shows some renovation projects offering the highest returns.

March is a great month to start these home projects, just in time for spring. Depending on your goals, some updates may take a week, while others could take a month. However, what’s important is to avoid unnecessary expenses, and I can help you create a plan and list necessary tasks so you get the most out of your money.

To help you get started, take a notepad or phone and walk through your home. Think about the small things you’ve meant to fix or update, such as painting a room, fixing a leaky faucet, or refreshing your front door. These changes can lead to big results. Remember, if you spend a dollar, aim to get that dollar back or more.
