\n4. Decks & Patios:<\/strong> Patios<\/a> and decks<\/a> have a 10-20% return on investment by creating additional outdoor living space for your home. Patios offer a slightly higher return than traditional wood decks due to their low maintenance and longer lifespan. However, there are new composite decking options which boast comparable returns to interlock patios.
\n\"Invest
\n5. Curb Appeal:<\/strong> Pay attention to your home\u2019s look from the end of your driveway or the road. It will make the strongest impression on anyone coming to view your home. Planters, stone, colour, and texture can work together to create the curb appeal you\u2019re looking for!<\/p>\n
