2. 7 Exterior Renovation Ideas To Increase Resale Value of
Your Home
Millennial buyers put the design and style of a
house near the top of their wish-list when looking
for a property to invest in. That means you must
boost your curb appeal if you want to attract
younger buyers and achieve a good resale value.
But, what is it that attracts buyers to a property and
how can you boost your exterior’s style? Here are
some of the best exterior renovation ideas that
will make your property stand out and reach a good
price.
Grab some paint
The best way to refresh the look of your exterior is
to give your entire home a repaint. Over time, your
façade will become a bit tired-looking, so make sure
to breathe some new life into it. However, make
sure not to go crazy with colours! You want to opt
for something that will appeal to the largest number
of people and something that will make your
property stand out, but in all the right ways. Neutral
yet warm and inviting colours are your safest bet.
So, think white, tan or taupe.
Rethink your entrance
Create a warm welcome with these exterior
renovation ideas
A front door says everything about your property,
so make sure to invest in a quality door that will
invite people inside. Your rst impressions rest on
your front entrance, so make sure to repaint your
doors or replace them. And make sure to choose a
model that stands out and provides your property
with a nice accent piece. For instance, if your home
is white with grey shutters, consider painting your
doors bold red or canary yellow. Surround your new
door with a few bigger planters and you’ll manage
to create a space no buyer can resist.
Go green
Well-designed landscaping can actually net you an
amazing return in increased home value. So, make
sure to invest in some owers for your yard or ll
your patio with planters. You can also add some
colour to your house by investing in window boxes
for owers (these always look very traditional and
picturesque). If you’re not very skilled with plants,
ensure your lawn is always nicely trimmed. This is
one gardening chore that requires zero talent (you
just grab your lawn mower and go to town) yet a
freshly-cut lawn leaves a great impression.

Fix your driveway
A solid driveway is an important exterior renovation
Your driveway is like a preview of your entire
property, so make sure to present your buyers with
a picture-perfect space. If you see any holes and
cracks to your driveway, make sure to seal them (it’s
an easy DIY job). However, if there’s just too much
to be done, it might be better to replace your
concrete altogether. If you decide on a new
driveway, you can choose from di erent kinds of
concrete from decorative to general and premium
products. Hire experts to create your new driveway
and the results will completely change the look of
your home!
Boost privacy
A high-quality fence can not only add privacy to your
home but also boost security and the look of the
property. While you don’t want to close your home
completely o , having some sort of privacy is
attractive to many people. So, make sure to provide
your backyard with a quality fence (between 4 to 9
feet high) and your space will instantly look cozier
and more romantic. Plus, families with young
children will love this feature since a good fence
can allow kids to play freely and stay safe.
Clean your property
If you’re one of the detail-oriented people, make
sure to give your property a good and thorough
wash. You might think that your driveway, deck,
pavers and façade aren’t dirty at all, but once you
start pressure washing the surface, you’ll be
amazed. Plus, renting a pressure washer isn’t
expensive and you can have your entire property
washed in a day. However, make sure to stay away
from your windows and doors. The pressure can be
very high and it can remove the caulk and other
sealing elements from your xtures.

Light it up
You don’t want to invest all that money and time
into your exterior and then having your buyer not
be able to see the results! So, make sure to add
plenty of light to your home to make your guests
feel welcome and safe. For instance, you can add a
stylish hanging pendant over the entrance or install
two sconces, one on each side of the doors. If you
want to further show o your property, consider
installing solar path lights to your driveway. In order
to further impress your buyers, consider adding
motion sensors to your lighting which will keep
away burglars and keep the property safe.
These exterior renovation ideas will de nitely
make buyers stop and stare. While you don’t have to
conduct any bank-breaking building projects, you’ll
still boost the look of your house and raise its resale
value signi cantly. From new paint to increased
safety and privacy, your exterior upgrades will give
every type of buyer something to love about your
property.
