// 7 Key Lessons
Lesson 1: Upgrade what adds value, not what just looks cool
Instantly-appealing upgrades like new flooring, garage doors, and entry doors deliver outsized ROI compared to high-end “flex” projects like spa rooms and marble everything.
Lesson 2: When in doubt, ask: "Can this increase the appraisal faster than it drains my cash?"
If the answer is no, it’s probably decoration—not an investment.
Lesson 3: Curb appeal is the silent assassin of ROI
Garage doors, siding upgrades, and fresh entry doors give surprisingly high returns because they change a buyer’s impression before they’ve stepped inside.
Lesson 4: Never underestimate the power of flooring
Refinished hardwood can hit 147% ROI. It also magically makes your space “brighter, fresher, newer,” as Jessi put it—without blowing up your budget.
Lesson 5: Luxury upgrades usually love your money more than you do
Marble baths, home theaters, and “statement” features rarely translate to increased value. They’re emotional upgrades, not financial ones.
Lesson 6: Don’t over-personalize—profit hates opinionated design
Bright accent walls, gourmet steam showers, or shark tanks (yes, actual shark tanks) make great stories but terrible investments.
Lesson 7: Think like a tenant or buyer, not like a homeowner
If none apply, it’s probably something only you care about.
