Lighting
can affect a home's value, according to HGTV's Front Door. The
publication recently stated that understanding the different types of
home lighting is crucial to brightening a space in the correct way.
Leslie Sellers, president of the Appraisal Institute, says, "lighting
sets the overall mood for your home. Washing the walls with the correct
light will make a room feel more inviting, and many times, much bigger."
HGTV's Front Door lists changing out lighting as one of the five best
value projects to add appeal to your home. Other value adding projects:
cleaning and decluttering, painting, updating cabinet hardware, and
adding decorative molding.
Lighting can completely transform a space by affecting mood, enhancing
the design and architecture, facilitating specific tasks, and creating a
focal point. A popular lighting trend is the use of LEDs
(light-emitting diodes). Though more expensive than regular incandescent
light bulbs, LEDs last much longer, are more durable, do not flicker,
are MUCH more energy efficient and withstand temperature fluctuations.
