You might be surprised which ones give you a higher ROI per HGTV.  They list 15 home improvements in order of best investment.  We always recommend making these improvements when the home owner themselves will be able to enjoy the updates.

One thing that’s for sure, no matter what your budget, you can find some improvements, big or small that will add value to your home. 

If you’re  wanting to sell, check with a realtor first to see if it will pay off to make some upgrades before listing your home. Right now it’s a seller’s market so you might not need to make upgrades that are higher end or take a long time to complete. Most of the time, you will find the most important thing to do before listing your home is to declutter and have it properly staged.
