Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump. 

A kitchen remodel can increase home value significantly, with a return on investment (ROI) ranging from 50% to 80%. A well-executed kitchen remodel that enhances functionality, aesthetics, and energy efficiency attracts more buyers and commands a higher selling price. Smaller remodels can have a higher ROI, since less cost is invested than what would go into major or complete remodels while still offering valuable enhancements.

Mortgage underwriting is often the next step after an appraisal, and this process can take anywhere from a week to a month or more. The timeline depends on the mortgage lender’s requirements, how quickly the buyer gets the required documentation to their lender, and whether there are any issues during the underwriting process.

Some of the home repairs with the highest ROI that can improve appraised value include exterior paint, new exterior doors, new windows, landscaping, kitchen and bathroom renovations, new flooring, new interior paint, finishing a basement, home additions that add to the square footage, and replacing major components, like the roof, heating and cooling equipment, and the water heater. Upgrades to home energy efficiency are also a big hit with buyers and can add significantly to value, as are smart home integrations.
