Apparently, like the reduced value of our homes, the return on investment in remodeling is lower now too. However, there are some bright spots that I gleaned from this review...

1) Instead of massively expensive upgrades in the kitchen and bath, look for ways to inexpensively make fresh changes. Light fixtures, faucets and towel racks, a fresh coat of paint and new mirror can make a world of difference. (We can get this done for you in a matter of a day or two and definitely within a reasonable budget!)
2) Make space...nothing sells a home better (or makes you feel more in control of your own stuff) than decluttered, organized closets and quality space planning. If nothing else, you will save yourself hours of looking for misplaced items!
3) Curb appeal is the most important feature to get potential buyers through the door. If resale is your goal, be thinking of hiring a professional to spruce up the exterior home and landscape. Professional landscaping can increase the value of your home by up to 14% of it's current value. A new entry door and hardware, changes to your entryway, cleaning up or replacing rotted trim, or painting accents can all make a substantial impact for a lot less money.

Landscape plans start at $150 from our sister company, Georgia Gardenscapes. Installing one of our plans will give you more free time and lower your yearly maintenance cost and use of chemicals.

2010 has a lot of promise to it. Make it more comfortable, enjoyable and save money in your repair, remodeling or landscaping projects.  Call us today - we can do it! Professionally, of course, but with a woman's touch.
