3 Types of Consultants That Can Improve Your Home Value

For many people, purchasing a home will be the largest investment they make in their lives. So ensuring you can find great value in that investment will be key not only to your long-term financial health, but also your happiness as you will want to feel fulfilled and satisfied in your home throughout the years.


And as the years go on, your tastes will change, styles will change, and so will the look of your home. While there are many projects you can take on yourself, it’s also worth keeping in mind that there are experts who can help you feel even more fulfilled in your home. That’s their jobs! And not only that, but as you begin to approach the stage where it may be time for you and your home to part ways, these folks also specialize in creating financial value for your investment. This means that they can not only help you customize your home to suit your personal needs, but they also specialize in suiting it to the broader needs of any potential buyers if you are considering putting it on the market.


Home consultants run the gamut, and we think a few types in particular stick out that are worth keeping in mind to help you get the most value — not just financially but also emotionally — out of your home.

Color consultant

Having a paint color expert in your corner is really a secret weapon when considering how to extract the most value out of your home. Often when people think of painting, they can tend to think of the physical labor that goes into the process of doing the work, and less on which colors will adorn the walls for years to come. That can take up a lot of mental energy in itself if you do focus on it. And knowing which color schemes could fit your space the best and combining that either with your personal passions or understanding that you may be selling your home is the job of a color expert.

Interior designer

This suggestion shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise. Most people who have used an interior designer can attest to how good of an investment it was, so why would we leave this out? While interior designers may not specialize so much in something like paint, for example, they can complement a paint expert in creating an overall environment in your house that suits your desires.

Landscape designer

Looking to make an outdoor paradise? Good luck doing this one on your own. If you thought the labor involved with painting was difficult, how about grading, building retaining walls, choosing the right stone, and more and more — not to mention designing it and possibly getting permits to do some work? A professional landscape designer can take your outdoor space and make it a place you want to relax and enjoy anytime.

The best part is that all three of these types of consultants can work with one another. While that may sound like a lot in fees, just remember that if you truly do want to maximize the true value of your home, that may involve putting in a little extra investment to make sure the finished product is one you can truly be satisfied with.
