These 10 Garage Updates Will Boost Your Home’s Value

7. Create a storage strategy

A cluttered space is never appealing, especially if it’s your garage. I can agree with the fact that you can keep all your things that you don’t use that often here, but having them stored all over the place won’t help. If you want to sell your house, make sure you create a smart storage strategy for when the potential buyers come for a visit.

Nobody likes crowded spaces because they make the space look smaller than it is. Better purchase identical-sized heavy-duty plastic bins, label them, and arrange them neatly on the shelves.

Small tip: Make sure you secure your shelves to the wall! Especially if you intend to load them up with heavy items.

    I’m not trying to make any body green with envy. I want to fit my car into the garage and right now if I was able to drive my car into the garage, I would not be able to get out of the car. There is maybe one hundred inches to park the car in the garage and my car would require at least 90 inches. I would need another 40 to 50 inches to open the driver’s side door and get out of the car, walk to the back of the car, open the trunk or maybe the side passenger door and get the groceries bags out or whatever I came home with.

      I am about to move into a home with a super small garage so , like my daughter did we are going up in the garage, I am excited to get the lift for items and the shelving put in with a complete floor above the cars this will help at least for Christmas things and such, we are older so we don’t have kids living at home but we seem to have things we need to be able to get to.
