A common question asked while working with clients is – how will this affect my home's resale value? The true answer is, it’s your home and unless you’re trying to immediately flip it on the market, you shouldn’t let resale value dictate your taste. Things always come in and out of trend but that’s not to say there aren’t some great home improvements that you can feel confident in and will probably end up adding value and that’s what we will be talking about here.

1. Custom Cabinetry.

Having something custom built for your home to perfectly fit your space and your needs is something that will always be unique and a future selling point. Storage never goes out of style! ​

2. ​Breakfast Nooks

This is not only a cozy and unique home feature, it’s also extremely useful for families of all ages. It’s a great informal place to eat or work and can be styled and changed quite easily.

3. Curbless Showers

Creating a curbless shower not only looks modern and sleek but can make your space more accessible for any kind of home buyer. Older people or people with disabilities or mobility aids often prefer these kinds of showers because it offers them more independence. Adding other functional features like grab bars or built in benches can increase that as well as making it more comfortable and safe for everyone! 

​

4. ​Mud Rooms or “Drop Zones”

Having a room designed to withstand any kind of elements that you bring in the house can be extremely useful especially if you have children and pets or like to engage in outdoor hobbies. Oftentimes they will have easy to clean tile flooring, storage for coats, keys, shoes, pet supplies as well as a bench to assist in the putting on or taking off of things. They can be small additions but so useful! ​

In the times we currently live, having a home office is nearly a must have. You don’t have to devote an entire room to an office if you don’t have the space, but carving out an area where a desk and maybe some built-in shelves can be is a game changer for many. This is a great area to invest in custom builds tailor made for your home. ​
At the end of the day, your home is for you and your family to live in and putting your specific needs and taste should be your first priority!
