While adding an additional bathroom to your home is estimated to add over 100% of the price of that addition to the value of your home, remodeling your bathroom can be just as profitable - but at a lower cost to you. The housing market is fierce right now, with plummeting housing prices, but adding valuable touches can make your house the one that gets the offer.
Value Adding Way #1
One of the easiest ways to remodel your bathroom is to look for modern bathroom vanities. These vanities are a great way to start off any remodel by adding a touch of theme to your design plans. Because the vanity will take up a large portion of the bathroom itself, it will become the focal point of the room. Thus, by adding something with the modern, sleek lines, you will be well on your way to a bathroom that's adding value to the sale of your home with modern appeal.
Value Adding Way #2
Another simple way to add value to your home is to look at the modern vessel sinks. These sinks protrude from the top of the bathroom counter, giving a more pronounced appeal to the room as well as a contemporary finish. Instead of the same old boring sink, you can have a dramatic basin. And when your buyer is interested in having the best of the best, they're also willing to pay for it.
Value Adding Way #3
Changing your bathroom faucet is another simple way to add value to a home that's up for sale. If you're not sure if you can afford a completely new vanity, this is an excellent way to make sure that you're bring a touch of the modern times to the bathroom - just without the price. You can even change the levers on the sink to match the faucet to complete the overall look and create an attractive and finished look.
Value Adding Way #4
Vanity cabinets allow for more storage and space in an already small bathroom. When you're trying to sell your home, they can be an appealing feature that is sure to win over an undecided buyer - and even add value to the sale. By coordinating them with your new bathroom vanity and faucet, you have completed the bathroom's modern appearance.
Value Adding Way #5
One of the more expensive ways to add value to your home is to add something larger to the bathroom - a whirlpool, a set of beautiful bathroom mirrors, or perhaps an attractive shower design. When you start to separate your home from the others on the block, you'll not only add value, but you'll also be able to entice the undecided home buyer - after all, you have something that no one else does.
While you might not think that the bathroom is the best place to renovate, you may want to reconsider. Not only does remodeling your bathroom add value to your home and increase its appeal to those that are looking to buy, but it can generally be done in a way that doesn't cost you a lot of money.
