Which 3 renovations will bring you the most return in Colorado? Here is my professional two-cents…
1. The Kitchen – Everyone loves an updated kitchen. It is said that families spend the most amount of time in a day in the kitchen; cooking, cleaning, organizing, doing homework, and just talking. Why not make the kitchen the most beautiful and functional it can be?
2. Finish Out The Basement – This adds finished square footage to your home, and when we compare your home to other homes when it’s time to sell: the more finished square footage the higher you can price it. Finished basements (even just framed out and insulated) are a HUGE selling point in Colorado.
3. Fresh Paint – If you have a kids rooms with neon pink walls, a crazy wallpaper, or a mural somewhere in your home, give the room a fresh start and go over it with a nice neutral, ideally a soft white. This gives the illusion that the rooms are actually bigger and look brighter! Buyers are looking for homes that are move in ready, not homes with a bunch of work to do once they close.
