Are you looking to update your home? Do you want to choose only things that will make your home look and feel better but will also increase its value? While regular upkeep and maintenance are essential in any home, you won’t always make all of your money back. Here are a few improvements that will get you the most significant return on your investment.

Old Windows

No matter how beautiful your home is, most buyers will be turned off if you have old windows with worn-out seals and single panes. Most counties have energy replacement incentives and rebates, so do your homework before choosing a company to replace the windows. Updating the windows on your home could result in as much as a 75% return when you sell.

Garage Door

Do you look at your garage door as simply a utilitarian door to access your cars or tools? Do you think it’s one of the last things that you would ever upgrade? If so, you should change your mind. Garage doors help improve the look of a home and can add a lot of character to it.

When working with your home improvement contractor Helena MT to choose a new garage door, choose a durable material such as wood composite. Additionally, choose a door that has good insulation and if there are windows, ensure they have energy-saving glazing on them. In most areas, you could see an average of 98.3 in recovered costs from upgrading your garage door.

Outdated Kitchen

A kitchen is often a make-it-or-break-it area of a home. If you have a kitchen with old appliances and outdated countertops and cabinets, you should consider upgrading it. You don’t have to choose the nicest, most expensive appliances to see a large return. In fact, simply doing a minor update to your kitchen can find you recouping about 81% of your costs. Buyers look mostly for updated appliances, flooring, faucet, and countertops and cabinets.
