Some of you may be receiving anywhere between $600 and $1300 within the next few weeks, and this just may be the time to spruce up that bathroom or replace those windows.

Investing these dollars in home improvements, such as replacing old leaky windows with newer, energy efficient ones, can offer homeowners a significant return on investment. Some experts believe that replacement windows are one of the best home improvement investments you can make in your home.
