Whether you’re selling your home in the near future or not, every homeowner loves the idea of building value and marketability into their property. After all, in many cases it’s the biggest investment you’ll ever make, and one you’ll live with (and in!) for years and years.
The fun thing about worthwhile home improvement projects is that, no matter what popular TV shows tell you, they don’t always have to involve moving walls, tearing things out, or spending stacks and stacks of cash.
Sometimes all it takes is finding a reputable painting company, creating clear goals, and strategically painting in a high-value way.
5 High-Value Painting Projects To Keep in Mind
- Exterior Painting - It’s all about that curb appeal! Capitalizing on a prospective buyer’s first impression of your home is an opportunity you’ll never get back. A fresh, stylish welcome (with an inviting front door) gives your home an invaluable advantage. Plus, you’ll love the view every time you come home!
- Create a Little Visual Interest - Who says your home needs to be a boring color? While wild, totally unorthodox palettes can hurt resale value, that doesn’t mean you need to stick with flavorless colors. Work with your professional painting company to find the perfect color scheme to maximize your property’s unique lines, textures, and architectural elements. A conservative way to add extra visual interest is to choose a bolder front door color, just as one example. Why not make your home a bit more memorable?
- Strategic Interior Painting - If a total interior repaint isn’t necessary (or in the budget), start instead with the most high-traffic spaces. Hallways, the living room, down the stairs, etc... Eliminating smudges, dings, and gouges will totally refresh the environment.
- Bathroom Painting - Skip the remodel and invest in skillful interior painting! The right colors will add tangible value, too; for an interesting example, take a look at this article that explores why blue bathrooms add real dollars and cents to sale prices.
- Kitchen Cabinet Painting - Right alongside bathrooms, kitchen improvements offer a huge return on investment. Cabinet painting can be the ideal way to transform this crucial space, creating an attractive, updated look without the hassle and expense of a total remodel.
It All Starts with Finding the Right Painting Company
