Home renovations can significantly boost property value, so it's essential to know which renovations promise the biggest returns.
Two key areas that offer substantial returns are kitchen updates and bathroom makeovers, a property expert has shared.
Sharing her wisdom on YouTube, Stephanie Golloway explained why it's worth splashing out on both jobs before putting your home on the market.
"If you’re planning to sell soon, or just looking to enhance your living space, understanding which renovations offer the best return on investment can make a huge difference," the real estate advisor explained.

"First up is the kitchen. A modern, updated kitchen is on top of most homebuyer’s lists when looking for a new home.
"But you don’t need a full-on remodel; small repairs can make a big change overall. Think about replacing old applications with contemporary models.
"Not only will this give the kitchen a sleeker appearance, but it will also save you money on your energy bills in the long run."
Not only do these improvements transform living spaces, but they are guaranteed to catch the eye of potential buyers, said Stephanie.
"Upgrading your countertops can totally transform the look of your kitchen,” she said, adding that it can make any kitchen look modern and stylish.
"That’s something that buyers definitely notice."
New kitchen countertops can enhance a home's value by approximately three times the price it costs to have them installed, according to experts at Jackson Stoneworks.
Bathroom makeovers also offer simple yet effective upgrades, added Stephanie.
She explained that new fixtures, a fresh coat of paint, and additions like double vanities can transform outdated bathrooms into selling points.
