How to Add Value to Home with Makeover | Interior Design Video Lecture | Interior Designing: A Basic Training - Self Help Learning

so there's a lot of things that
homeowners can do to add value to their
home without going crazy some of the
basics include we all know granite or
stone countertops why because they wear
well over time if you just try to save
money and do like a laminate countertop
it never works out well in the long run
you probably last maybe a year so stone
countertops always a must the other
thing that's really important is tone
down the colors in your home you want
something that really speaks to who you
are but at the same time you don't need
red in the bedroom red in the bedroom is
never good but red in the dining room
may be above a chair rail think woodwork
and molding molding is wood that you
find around door frames and also around
windows but guess what you can also
create architectural interest in your
home by adding molding so sometimes a
really simple chair rail that wraps
around a dining room or even a living
room is really helpful
another thing is hardwood floors
hardwood floors are really easy to
achieve nowadays I always like to go for
something a little bit more real but it
costs money so if you want the same look
for less but still want to add value
then sometimes a peugeot floor or a
floating floor which is a thinner
laminate that looks like wood and it
floats right above any surface that you
have on your floor so so far we have
wood floors we have stone countertops in
the bathroom and in the kitchen colors
that are on your walls that are neutral
but still say who you are also pay
attention to appliances appliances are
really big people will always look for
what you're applying to say to them when
shopping for a home even when you're
changing out your you're financing for
the house they always look at the
appliances so kitchen appliances
stainless steel bathroom fixtures if you
spend more money and it doesn't have to
be a ton but a little bit more money in
the kitchen and the bathroom and then
pay attention
the molding and the floors countertops
you're always gonna do well and you're
always going to add value to your home
those are the basics everything else
just add on a personal whim you don't
even have to spend a ton of money and
then you could change those out as you
go on
