LANDSCAPING YOUR NEW HOME If you have just moved into your first home, congrats! One place many new homeowners forget about is their yard and unlike an apartment or condo, it must be maintained and cared for. Even if you have an HOA that provides mowing there is much more to maintaining curb appeal. Nurseries and landscaping companies can give you ideas on what plants and flowers work best with the local soil and weather along with providing stone and mulch making your landscaping look beautiful. Not only does this look great, but it prevents weeds from growing.

TOP WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR HOME PUT IN A DECK There's nothing like relaxing on a deck in the summertime with a cool drink in your hand. On average, when a homeowner adds a deck to their home, they are likely to recoup approximately 76 percent return on their investment. An appraiser's No. 1 rule is finding homes that are very similar within a mile away of your home, so matching your improvements to the homes in your neighborhood is very important.

DO A MAJOR BATH REMODEL Transform an ugly duckling into a swan of a master bath by finding more space, either by adding an addition or sometimes stealing space from an otherwise unused area can be a solution if you can find some extra square footage.

One great feature is to create separate his-and-her areas with separate sinks, or add a skylight to bring in valuable natural light.

Updating tub and tile are also good ideas.

PAINT, PAINT, PAINT Don't be afraid of paint. It is one of the easiest and inexpensive things to do to dramatically change the look of your home.

Here are some tips: If you are not sure about your color sense, bring in a professional color specialist to help. Also, think classic and neutral. A future buyer needs to be able to picture his or her things in the room, and too much personalization can prevent that.

If your painting skills are below par, hire someone. In the end, it evens out because nothing is worse than a bad paint job. Fight your fear of commitment, and splash a little color on those walls!

ADD ON TO THE ATTIC Renovate your attic. The space above a garage is often small, dusty and cramped space and sometimes rarely even used for storage. Why not turn it into a bedroom suite or game room?

2021 Spring Home Guide Continued from Page 8

Add as many windows as possible for that precious natural light. Recessed windows, hardwood flooring, built-ins and custom seating are also great ways to add value.

BUILD A SECOND FLOOR Adding a second story can do more than just create square footage. It can bring balance to an uneven house. A flat roof over a garage can be an eyesore as well as a huge waste of space.

You could solve both problems at the same time by adding on to the top of the garage. Use all that dead space to build a master suite or a media room.

You will not only add space, but you will also add tremendous curb appeal.

KEEP ROOMS FLEXIBLE Things like hardwood floors, wiring for cable, phone and DSL, and plenty of windows are good ways to customize while keeping the room versatile. Another idea is to make the space one that can easily be converted into a guest suite, studio, family room or a den.

MAKE BATHROOM CHANGES If you have old tile or a dated tub, sink and toilet, consider replacing those items. If you keep the same layout you will have less expense. Additionally, updating light fixtures, linens and accessories are easy ways to breathe new life into this space.

ADD A NEW BATH There is no such thing as too many bathrooms. If your home has fewer faucets than beds, you might want to consider adding a bathroom. If you have only one bathroom upstairs, your guests have to go traipsing up the stairs and throughout your home. That could be uncomfortable for both parties involved. Why not use that unused space underneath the stairs? It's a great way to utilize space that would otherwise just be used for storage.

SPRUCE UP THE SIDING It may not be glamorous, but replacing siding is the no. 1 pick for home improvements that add Continued on Page 17

Bathroom updates always pay dividends, whether you are just updating fixtures or turning your bath into a spa retreat.

One current trend is the walk-in shower, some making theirs into a wet room to include a free-standing tub within the shower enclosure.

CUSTOM WINDOW TREATMENTS PROVIDE BEAUTY AND BENEFITS BEAUTY Custom window treatments can be the most important element when decorating your room. Fabrics, trim, and design are hand-selected, making each project unique, and tailored to your home and taste.

QUALITY By using premium materials and linings, professionally measuring and installing and paying close attention to detail, you will be sure to have window treatments that last for years.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY In addition to beautifying homes, window treatments also serve a functional purpose. Up to forty percent of a home’s heat is lost through glass windows. Draperies, blinds, and shades can make a room feel more comfortable and even save on utility bills.

value to your home. It’s great first impression and if your siding is in bad shape, your home is going to earn the title of fixer-upper. You can usually judge a book by its cover, so old siding sets the tone.

Your local contractor can provide you with several options that add curb appeal and lower maintenance.

INSTALL NEW WINDOWS Installing new windows can be beneficial for more than one reason. On an average house, 30 percent of energy is lost through windows. They are not only important in terms of energy issues, but they are also a signal to a future buyer that the homeowners have really taken good care of the house.

ADDITIONS THAT BLEND Make sure an addition does not stick out like a sore thumb. Many additions look like a box that has been attached to the back of a house. A good local remodeling or building contractor can combine design elements of the original house and the addition to create a seamless makeover.

Invest In a Major Kitchen Remodel Tired of the same old tired kitchen? If your current square footage or location doesn’t allow you to enlarge your kitchen consider extending your kitchen into the backyard. Size really matters when it comes to kitchens -- the bigger the better! Update it with lots of recessed lighting and new cabinetry and appliances. It won't be cheap, but it will be a great investment for the long-term. It could be the difference between being able to sell your house or not in a tighter market, and in the meantime you have get to really enjoy your kitchen all over again.

LIVEN UP THE LANDSCAPING Your yard may be thirsty for a makeover. Dirt and old, dead grass does not constitute a yard.

Turn your desert landscape into a destination hot spot with plenty of seating, elegant water features and lush plants. You could even add extra square footage for Continued on Page 18

entertaining. Even if you're not in a warm climate, glamming up a notso-hot yard is a good way to go!

GET A NEW ROOF If yours is a roof that the neighbors talk about (and not in a good way), fix it! A shabby roof leaves a first impression that you don't take good care of their place.

Consider replacing the old, threetab flat shingles with architectural shingles that provide a lot more texture and depth. It can really change the character and the feel of the house, and the cost can be easy on the pocket. From a purely aesthetic standpoint, a new roof that is architecturally interesting can only be a plus.

ADD ON A FAMILY ROOM Add more space and square footage with a new family room.

What people want these days are open floor plans, so create a bright new spot for the family. And everyone loves a fireplace.

Create or Renovate a Master Suite Master suites aren't really a luxury anymore -- they're an expected feature. On average, 33 percent of houseowners are more likely to buy a recently-renovated home.

Work within the footprint of the house to increase your return on investment. Entice buyers with a cozy open space and a really nice closet. Squeeze in as much storage room as you can.

SPRING FOR A SUNROOM Anytime you can add square footage and living space to your home, it's a winner. Build a sunroom in the back of the house where you have less tree cover and more privacy. The result? A stunning addition that transforms the entire house. The room attracts sunlight during the day and guests in the evening.

Update the Home Office Take care of business with a home office remodel. More and more people are working out of their houses. It's not just a luxury, but a necessity. Turn an unused den or an old office into an inviting work sanctuary with new windows, a fresh coat of paint and built-in shelving, and you're sure to reap the rewards.
