Today I'm going to go over five different ways to increase your home's value. It's relatively easy and inexpensive to do, and with the spring selling season approaching I thought this would help you to prepare for a great sale.

1. New Front Door: This can really help with curb appeal and in drawing potential buyers inside. It's quite amazing what a change a door can make on a home. 
2. New Interior Doors: For around $100-$200,  you can replace your interior doors, and this can really elevate the feel of your home.
3. Window Replacement: A lot of the homes here in Long Beach have old, wood windows which really don't insulate very well. By replacing them with newer, vinyl windows you can increase your curb appeal and also save on heating and air conditioning because the windows will insulate much better. 
4. Kitchen Remodel: Kitchens are known to sell houses, and an updated kitchen is a tremendous way to modernize your home and increase your pool of potential buyers. A good kitchen remodel can get pricey, but in my opinion, when it is done well, a kitchen remodel can return 2-3 times the investment. 
5. Bathroom Remodel: Consumers love seeing updated kitchens and modern bathrooms. You can typically spend around $3,000 for a bathroom remodel, but even little changes can add a lot of value.

Believe it or not, a lot of renovations don't add a lot of value to your home, but these five are certain to increase the worth of your home. They'll cost you up front, but you'll reap the benefits when you sell in Long Beach.
