How to Add Value to Your Home

Ways to Add Value to Your Home

Increasing your home’s value is important if you are planning on selling it soon or in the future. There are several ways to add value to your home. Learn about which home improvement projects can make a difference with Lampert Lumber. 

Add Square Footage

Homes that are larger in size tend to sell at a higher price, which is why we recommend adding square footage! Renovations you may want to consider include the expansion of a kitchen or bathroom space, adding on an additional room, and converting a basement into a living space. 

Invest in New Appliances

Out with the old and in with the new. Investing in new appliances is a great way to increase your home’s value. The functionality and aesthetics of brand new appliances will attract buyers. Some appliances to consider updating include the refrigerator, microwave, stove, oven, dishwasher, and washing machine and dryer.  

Install a Deck

Another way to add value to your home is by installing a deck to your home’s exterior. Decks can be used for entertainment purposes as well as relaxation. At Lampert Lumber, we proudly offer custom outdoor deck design. Our decking material includes treated lumber, cedar, and composite. You can choose from different colors and styles that best suit your preferences and vision. 

Consider Energy Efficiency Improvements

Installing energy efficiency improvements can increase the value of your home. Energy efficient windows work to keep in cool air when it’s warm outside and warm air in when the air becomes colder. Not only will you use less energy, but you’ll save money each month. More energy efficiency improvements include appliances like washers and dryers, refrigerators, air purifiers, and more. Lastly, we recommend upgrading to energy efficient lighting.  

Give Your Home Curb Appeal

Let the exterior of your home make a statement! By adding curb appeal, the value of your home is likely to increase. Ways to enhance the exterior of your home include improving the landscaping, updating hardware, creating an illuminating path, making your front door pop with color, and installing new roofing. 

Apply a Fresh Coat

You can never go wrong with fresh paint. Applying a fresh coat of paint to your home can be appealing to potential buyers and give your home’s exterior a boost. The team at Lampert Lumber would be more than happy to assist you with paint selection. We carry a great selection of brands and colors that can withstand elements and look beautiful for years to come.
