The ROI of Renovation: Which Projects Boost Your Home’s Value the Most?

Not All Renovations Add Equal Value
When planning a renovation, it’s easy to focus on finishes—but the smartest updates are those that enhance how you live while increasing your home’s resale value. At Arani Construction, we help homeowners make value-forward decisions that blend beauty with strategic investment.

Kitchens and Bathrooms Reign
These spaces continue to top the list for ROI—both for their everyday use and appeal to future buyers. A well-designed kitchen with modern appliances, smart storage, and quality surfaces can recoup over 70–80% of its cost in resale value. Similarly, an upgraded bathroom that adds functionality and comfort often increases a home’s perceived worth instantly.

Income-Generating Suites Add Long-Term Gains
Basement and secondary suite conversions are one of the most overlooked ways to add real, ongoing value. Whether for rental income or family use, a well-finished suite adds livable square footage and consistent cash flow—especially in high-demand areas like North Vancouver.

Curb Appeal Still Counts
Don’t underestimate exterior upgrades—entryways, siding, and landscaping add major curb appeal and can influence buyer perception before they even step inside. First impressions matter, and they often start with the front elevation. Paired with interior updates, these enhancements position your home competitively.
