Home Improvement Projects – Q&A: How do you prioritize home improvement projects for the resale of a home?
Home Improvement Projects Question by k~prez: How do you prioritize home improvement projects for the resale of a home?
My husband and I are planning to move as soon as we find a home that fits us. We have been looking for a year now with no luck and with the housing market being so bad, it might be a while so we have decided to do some improvements to our home in the meantime to increase the value of our home. We want to paint, put tile in the bathrooms & kitchen, add more insulation, finish the basement, maybe add a deck, etc. How do we know what is the most important to do first since we can’t afford to do everything at once? Also, fyi, it was a brand new house when we bought it, however, it is one of those subdivision cookie cutter houses that wasn’t built with the best quality or workmanship. It’s not a dump by any means, but it could use some improvements here and there. Any advice is appreciated!

We have been renovating our house slowly. We hope to sell for profit also. The estste agents told us that the most important things are, The kitchen & bathrooms. Painting is recommended also as it makes such a huge difference. If your bathrooms and kitchen are nice, i would recommend the painting and tiles first, then a deck. An outdoor area is always a good selling point.
