30 Home Improvements That Won’t Affect Your Budget

24. Refresh the Walls

Painting your interior walls is one of the smallest home improvement investments you can make, but it can still bump your home’s value by up to 2 percent. Painting is a perennial DIY project that really fills the space with your unique personality, though if you’re planning on selling, sticking with neutral colors is the safest bet.

Average Cost: You can repaint a room DIY-style for about $300, or hire a crew to re-do the whole place for an average of about $1,700.*
