Is Home Remodeling Worth It

Is Home Remodeling Worth It? Before you start an extensive and costly home remodeling project, you should consider its effect. If any, it will have an effect on the resale value of your home. Compare your home to others in your neighborhood. If you are over-improving compared to the homes around you, it is highly doubtful. You’ll recoup your investment. Kitchen and bath renovations are generally the most expensive, but they may not be the best way to add value to your home if you’re planning to sell in the near future.

Renovations that give you the best return on investment are:

  • replacing an entry door
  • adding a wood deck, or an attic bedroom,
  • replacing a garage door
  • minor kitchen or bath remodeling. 

Renovations that give the least return on investment are:

  • remodeling a home office
  • adding a sunroom
  • Add a backup power generator
  • adding a master suite.

Before finalizing any remodeling decisions, consult with a realtor familiar with real estate values in your neighborhood. To get a second opinion about whether the project you are considering would be a sound investment.
