Which items will add value to your home and help with resale when the time comes to sell?
The answer is: “Only the ones that future buyers will also want and be willing to pay for.”
As a general rule, choosing the functional over the merely cosmetic and choosing neutral over unusual or exotic will pay at resale. However, at a certain price point and above, the cosmetic aspect becomes at least as important as function. Taste and current trends can also affect the value of an update. Unusual colors have a limited appeal.
