How can I raise my home value?

[John Carino]

I currently own a home with a VA loan on it and I'm trying to think of ways to increase the value of the home so I can add equity and sell to start with rental properties. The house is a two bed one bath just under 1,000sqft. The basement isn't finished but that's in the plan. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Two things you can do. First pay about $150 to an appraiser to come out and do a simple evaluation and suggestions on market trends in your neighborhood and what cost effective ways to increase value. Another idea is go here to get some sort of cost vs value report on what ever you decide to do. Gives return on remodeling costs that add value to you home.
