Add some attic insulation
A drafty home—or one that doesn’t hold in the cool air being pumped by its air conditioning units—is a turn off for home buyers. Luckily, all it takes is a little insulation in your attic to seriously improve your home’s value both now and in the future.
“On average you will see a 108 to 116 percent return on investment [when you add attic insulation],” says April Palomino.
“That is because insulation protects the home from the transfer of heat, thereby reducing energy bills. Insulation also prevents moisture from entering delicate parts of your home, preserving your investment.”
