Whether you just bought a house or you have lived there for a while, the fastest way to increase your home's value is by making a plan. Start slowly. If your home is new, get to know it. If you have already been there a while, get started. List the things you want to change and the updates you would like to make. Take the list and categorize by how much it may cost, including your time and money. Be realistic. 
Once you have a categorized list, take a look and prioritize what is a real "must have" and what is more of a dream. See if you can come away with a reasonable balance. Once you have made a plan, do research or talk to a realtor to see what sort of return those improvements may bring.
