Consider Resale Value when Remodeling...
Most often, a person’s home is their largest investment. It’s therefore
wise to consider resale value when undertaking any substantial
remodeling project.
Each November, REMODELING Magazine publishes their annual “Cost vs.
Value Report”, comparing construction cost with resale value in over 50
markets. As reported, from a national perspective, 2005’s top 3 projects
for return on investment were:
Siding Replacement – upscale: 103.6%
Bathroom Remodel – mid-range: 102.2%
Minor Kitchen Remodel – mid-range: 98.5%
Naturally, if selling is not in the foreseeable future, one’s first
consideration would be centered on personal use. - - Is more space
needed for a growing family? Would a backyard pool create the perfect
spot for warm weather get-togethers? The answers to such questions would
be of prime consideration.
That stated, regardless of circumstances, learning more about the
financial impact of a planned remodeling project is a prudent step. - -
It’s your home, know its value!
