Texas Home Remodeling Projects That Pay Back the Most
Real estate agents in Texas are negotiating a record number of houses since the market went dormant back in mid-2020. The upward trend shows no signs of slowing down any time soon. Do you know what that means?
Rising real estate!
Prices always go up when the demand is high. In Texas, the demand is so high people are willing to pay through the teeth if it means they can move into their new home ASAP!
Are you a homeowner or more of a real estate investor interested in buying, renovating, and selling properties for a profit? In any case, here are the home remodeling projects that’ll pay off and then some.
Curb Appeal
Let’s face it: people judge homes by their facades like they do books by their covers, and you can’t do a think about it, or can you?
If potential buyers are only window-shopping curbs, you might want to meet them halfway by sprucing it up. Nothing gets a home’s value up faster than a pretty mug, aka wrought iron door.
Replace your weathered old door with a brand spanking new front door. Choose from a single iron door or a set of double wrought iron doors, depending on the size of your entrance.
Make the most of its iron and glass regalia by customizing it for color, trimming the front yard, and repaving the driveway.
Highly Recommended: AIR 4 – Double Flat
Window Replacement
Some people buy homes just for their steel doors and windows. Windows, in particular, are a massive selling point for Texan homes. Steel ones make replacing the trim more than worth your time and money.
They add to your curb appeal and bring more light into your home, and isn’t that all anyone ever wants from their home. Even more so in the colder seasons when the daylight hours are shorter, and you need as much natural illumination as possible without opening the window.
Highly Recommended: AIR 5 – Single Square Fixed Window
New Year, New Patio Doors
Why not welcome the new year with new patio doors? They probably won’t be the first impression of your home, but they sure would paint a pretty picture. If you’re looking to go full throttle, Marie Kondo, on your home this year, you might benefit from the space-saving options that are steel sliding doors.
Any patio door with a sliding mechanism would take up less floor space. If you want something a bit modern, accordion doors would do the job pretty well. While they aren’t as space-saving as sliding doors, they definitely take up less space than swinging doors. They’re also easy on the eyes, which certainly doesn’t hurt you or your kitchen space.
Highly Recommended: AIR 4 – Bi-fold
A Bathroom Revamp
Is the bathroom way down your priority list for home remodeling? Bring it up a notch because no one likes a good-looking bathroom more than a prospective buyer. Pocket doors are a great option for en suites because they don’t take up any space and slide right into a pocket inside the wall.
Barn doors aren’t half bad either, not least if you’re trying to save your floor from a sliding panel. These interior doors have a panel at the top but nothing at the bottom, meaning they don’t have a visible threshold when open. If you’re worried about privacy, a low-visibility pane like frosted glass would conceal the view from both sides.
Highly Recommended: AIR 4 Interior – Barn Door
More of that Sun, Please
If you’re sick of staying indoors but too scared to venture outdoors because of quarantine, why not bring the outdoors inside? There are several ways to add a hint of open concept to your home plan.
You can replace a wall on your first floor with French doors. If you want to go with this option, be sure to select your location wisely. Don’t go for a part of the house that gets little to no sun. You want the light to cross over, not slide right by your house.
You can also place fixed transoms and sidelights strategically around the house. A few in the living room, some on the top floor, and maybe the odd awning above your windows. There’s also the traditional route of installing them with your modern iron doors to enhance your curb appeal.
Highly Recommended: AIR Grid Transom – Flat Top
Scene-Stealing Steel Interiors
If your home feels like every other home in Texas, it’s probably because of those wooden doors that don’t offer any seamless transitions or a view of the other side. The opacity is enough to make a perfectly normal-sized house look tiny from the inside.
Don’t let your inner doors take up so much space. Firstly, replace them with black steel doors with more glass than steel. It’ll open up your space interior like nothing else. While you’re at it, go for sliding doors because they’ll save you a ton in space overall.
Secondly, take doors away from some spots and replace them with room dividers. These steel divisions would make your interior look more open, not to mention spacious.
Highly Recommended: AIR 4 Interior – W/Sidelights Double Flat Top
Add a Window to Your Attic
Attics usually have low ceilings, so they don’t leave much room for windows. Turn this room into a space fit for habitation by installing a fixed or sliding window on the ceiling. It’ll double as a sunroof in the morning and your very own observation deck in the evenings.
If your walls are too short for standard windows, you can pair the sunroof with a single fixed transom on the adjacent wall. It’ll brighten up your attic and make you want to actually use the space for something.
