Yes, you want to live in a space you love, but think twice before investing in any major or costly renovations.

1. Lavish Lighting Fixtures- Whatever is in vogue today will look dated 10 years down the road. When you are ready to sell, simple is best.
2. Hot Tub- Like swimming pools, hot tubs are a gamble — Homebuyers with children might consider a hot tub a safety hazard. Consider a portable hot tub vs a built-in hot tub. You could potentially take it with you when you move.
3. DIY repairs- There are ways you can increase your home’s value with DIY projects, but you need to be strategic. We’ve seen plenty of houses where you can tell the owner did the work. The owner probably feels that they made all the right improvements, but buyers quickly see the shoddy workmanship.
4. Combing bedrooms to create a bigger room- Even small bedrooms add value to homes, as most families want children to have their own rooms but don’t mind if they’re on the small side. In my experience, each bedroom can add about 15% to the value of a home. Instead of knocking down walls, try simple tricks to make your bedroom space look bigger, like lighter colors and modern, slim furniture.
5. High end electronics – As with all home renovations, personalization can lead to a decrease in home value, and built-in technology that can quickly become outdated is no exception.
6. Bright and bold paint colors can turn off any potential buyer who might lack a bit of vision. Fortunately, repainting a room before putting your home on the market is an easy fix. Choose neutral colors to present buyers with a blank canvas.
