But what if you’re ideal renovations don’t yield any return?

The key to investing in your home is doing it wisely, making sure you recoup at least some of the cost upon the sale of your home. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) and Remodeling Magazine recently released their 2011-2012 Remodeling Cost vs. Value Report, and the findings prove you don’t have to spend a ton of money to add to your home’s resale value. Here are some of the home improvement projects which will get you the most bang for your buck:

1. Siding replacement – cost recouped: 78 percent

2. Entry door replacement – cost recouped: 73 percent

3. Attic or basement bedroom addition – cost recouped: 72.5 percent

4. Window replacement – cost recouped: 69.1 percent
