Ready to enhance your home’s value and charm? Making home improvements can help you transform your home into the space you’ve always imagined, but not every project will add value or is worth financing. Check out some of the best value-adding home improvements you can make, why they’re recommended, and how you can finance them with Lisle Savings Bank.
Value-Adding Projects
Kitchen Magic: Investing in energy-efficient appliances, sleek countertops, and smart storage not only transforms your kitchen into a stylish, functional hub but also significantly boosts your home's value. Kitchens are one of the home’s main living areas, and having an updated, modern kitchen will help boost the value of your home.
Bathroom Bliss: Upgrade to a new bath/shower combo or a walk-in shower, refresh tiles, replace the sink and fixtures, and add new fixtures. Updating your bathroom not only adds value to your home, but also pampers you with luxury and comfort.
Curb Appeal: Fresh landscaping, a new front door, and a fresh exterior paint job can make a lasting first impression.
Energy Efficiency: Invest in energy-efficient windows, appliances, insulation, or HVAC systems to reduce utility bills and attract eco-conscious buyers.
Swimming Pools: Adding a pool to your backyard is a great way to elevate the fun, add value, and set your home apart from the rest.
Projects to Think Twice About
Quick Trends: While trendy designs can quickly become outdated fast, opting for timeless styles ensures a better return on your investment and a home that remains appealing for years to come.
High-End Luxuries: Expensive additions like home theaters or wine cellars may not appeal to every buyer or end up adding the value that you put into it.
