What materials to use to maximize ROI and sell quickly
Hello BP community!
I'm planning on renovating my first flip this month and i'm wondering what materials everyone likes to use to maximize their return on investment, create more appeal to the home, and still remain cost effective. If you could i'd love if you provided links to materials, prices, or any other helpful information! Thank you!

I like to see what my competition has and do a little more...
I always do wainscotting the main areas. Ads a nicer feel to a cheaper house (99% of the competition doesn't have that).
I always upsize my upper cabinets (most do 30" I do 36"). I also add crown and usually light rails. I do a deep fridge cabinet and like to do counter depth fridges to not have it stick out. Subtle but makes the kitchen look better.
I always tile my showers, when a lot of competition does Fiberglass surround.
I do accent walls, I've done wine coolers, wine racks, etc... things they wouldn't expect but makes an impression.
None of these actually "add" value in my opinion. They make the house stand and out and hopefully sell quicker!
