Simple Ways To Upgrade Your Home Value

Update Your Garage Doors

This is an easy tip, especially if your garage sits at the front of the house as opposed to the back. Instead of buying new garage doors, paint them a different color. If you have a blue-colored house, painting your garage doors blue may not be a good idea. Go for neutral colors. Do not just stop at the paint. Consider changing up the hardware. You can head to any hardware store and make the swap. It is very easy to do. By doing these few tweaks, your home will look brand new.

​Switch Up The Lighting

When many people think about creating ambiance lighting, most people forget about the ways you can incorporate this on the exterior of the home as well. Even though this will only be seen at night, it can still add major value. Try putting lights throughout on the home, as a way to highlight the architecture. You could even install ground lights around any interesting trees you may have your yard that you want to show off. Ground lights can even be used in some shrubs and bushes. This gives your homes a welcoming glow for anyone coming to visit or stopping by just to look.

Give The Entire House A New Paint Job

So you painted the garage, and still, the exterior of your house could use some tender love and care. No worries! Consider giving the whole house a new paint job. If your home is a lighter color, it is recommended that you try painting it a darker color. There is some interesting psychology behind dark colored houses. If your house is a darker color, it is perceived to some as being sturdier or heavier. Try painting the cement parging that is near the ground a darker color. You can even add accents of black or dark colors if you do not want to paint the whole house.

Add A Garden To Your Front Yard

Gardens are wonderful to look at. They can instantly beautify your home. All the varieties of flower colors are enough to make anyone happy while walking or driving by your home. It is known that if you have a flower garden both in the front of the house leading to the back of the house, your home is perceived to be bigger than it really is. How is that for a psychology trick just from planting a few flowers?
