12 Simple Ways to Add Value to Your Home

1. Paint

Old paint can make your home feel, well, old. But a fresh coat of paint can do wonders. It’ll make your home seem newer, cleaner and more contemporary – and it can easily be done on a tight budget. 

If you’re willing to spend the time and energy painting your home yourself, you can get away with only paying for the paint, roller and brushes, drop cloths and other painting accessories. Alternatively, if your budget is a little more flexible, pay for the professionals to do it.

Just make sure to pick neutral colours that’ll stand the test of time or - at the very least - remove dated colours.
