When it comes to home renovation projects it should go without saying that if there is an area or aspect of your home that is worn or needs repair you should address it first. But if your home is already in good repair and you have some extra cash that you want to invest in your home. There are many wonderful home renovation projects that will boost its appeal and have a great return on investment.  Here is our list of the top home renovation projects from last year.

1.)   Hardwired In Back Up Generator: Installing a back up generator and hard-wiring it into your home is a great renovation project that many homeowners made last year. This is because installing an emergency back up generator that is hardwired into your home is not only an appealing upgrade but a useful one as well. Plus if you go to sell your home you will benefit from about 53% return from your investment.

2.)   A Gourmet Kitchen Remodel: Giving your kitchen a major remodel is always a very popular option and comes with a pretty nice return on investment. According to experts you can generally expect to enjoy about a 60% return on its investment when you make a gourmet kitchen remodel. So not only will it boost your homes comfort and appeal but if you ever go to sell it you will get about 60% of your money back.

3.)   Converting The Attic Into An Extra Bedroom: Adding an attic bedroom if you have the extra room is a great way to boost the appeal and comfort of a home and adding an extra bedroom is almost never a bad idea. Last year this was a very popular option for homeowners because not only does this boost your homes appeal and comfort but you can enjoy as much as 73% return on your investment if you ever end up selling your home.

4.)   Replacing The Siding: If you are looking for a way to change the look of your home and maybe add a little style at the same time consider replacing the siding on the exterior of your home with a newer more durable composite. Composites come in a variety of faux finishes that can really add some style to your home. On average if you go to sell home you will see around an 80% return on your investment.
