The evolution of a home into a dream home is one that can happen much quicker and easier than many people think. With a fairly minor expenditure the average home can easily become much more than simply a house. There are a variety of ways that the average home owner can revamp their home to create a custom space that is not only perfectly suited to their lifestyle, but is a conversation point for the home.

Creating an overall theme for a home is an interesting experience and can be extremely rewarding if successful and heartbreaking if it isn't. Many people spend considerable time discussing matters with a designer and others simply have the knack for detailing their spaces already. Either way, the first thing you are going to have to arrange is the financing for your project. If it is on a small scale you may simply be able to pay for it up front. Other then that there are a few equity financing options such as the second mortgage or the home owners line of credit. Both of these options are perfect for renovations as they come with low interest rates with the loan secured by your home equity. 

In terms of where to start with your renovations, think about which rooms in the home you use the most. Typically this will be the kitchen, main bathroom, and living room. One of the best ways to change the feel of the first two is to replace all the appliances and fixtures. The living room will be a bit of a different story. This space will be best served by some new furniture, art and maybe new floors. 

The exterior of any home can be given new life by some landscaping and TLC for the yard. The yard will be anyone's first impression of your home so make sure you give it the necessary attention. Tending to the gardens, lawn and driveway will add a nice scenic element to the front yard and add value to the home. Creating your perfect are is not difficult, express your creativity and increase your home's value at the same time!
