4. Elaborate Outdoor Living Spaces. 

Although the Pandemic has been over for a while, outdoor living spaces are still very popular, because they extend your home’s living space well beyond the interior space. Outdoor living areas can include decks, patios, and outdoor kitchens. And adding new creative features to enhance your backyard’s outdoor living environment, such as fire pits, built-in seating, or an outdoor bar can really transform your backyard into an oasis, which will be the envy of your family, friends, and neighbours!

5. Modern Multipurpose Basement Conversions.

Traditionally basements were underappreciated and only used as storage space. However, in recent years instead of people adding on expensive home additions, which only increase the environmental footprint of their house and heating costs, many have chosen to convert their basement into an extra living space for their parents, kid, or just converted it for other practical uses besides just storage, such as a home gym, media room, or extra office. In the long run basement renovations will lead to up to a 75% higher resale value for your home according to Remodelling Magazine.

6. Energy Efficient Upgrades. 

By adding more energy efficient windows, better insulation, and appliances you can save a lot of money on heating and cooling costs, while also being more eco friendly! In addition, you can recoup some of the costs of upgrading to more energy efficient products and appliances via government tax rebates and programs, such as the new Home Renovation Savings Program, which is going to take effect in Ontario on January 28, 2025, and allow people to get up to 30% back on eco-efficient renovations or improvements, such as smart thermostats, solar panels, doors, windows, insulation or heat pumps. And many homebuyers will pay more money for more energy efficient homes, since over the long run they will save tons of money.

7. Curb Appeal Enhancements. 

Although curb appeal has always been a key real estate marketing tactic, it has become even more popular in 2025. Some exterior enhancements people often do are: painting the exterior of their home, replacing old-fashioned garage doors, and improving the landscaping. Curb appeal enhancements are especially important in a competitive real estate market where there’s many homes in the same price range for sale, so you can differentiate your home from the others.
