They say the best home investment is upgrading the kitchen, but that is a big one. We have done a lot to our home – Replaced all of the windows, exterior paint, put in swimming pool and a backyard entertaining area (barbecue, fireplace, tv, patio cover). By far we have spent the most in the yard, though that is not a great investment! The windows and painting are more in line with money that is worth spending (in terms of hoe investment). That being said – we love our backyard and enjoy it all year round.
