Home Improvement Planning

Planning a Home Improvement Project

Home improvements can add comfort, beauty and value to your home. Should you commit to a home improvement plan? Weigh the pros and cons. Can you afford it? Probably not, but the alternative is waiting until you can and doing without until then. Many people opt for a home improvement loan, so they can enjoy their home improvements while they are paying for them.
Which home improvements will give you the most equity, for the cost? “Return on Investment,” is the term for what you will get out of what you put in. ROI is important because you want to recoup at least the same amount of money you put into your home when you sell it, or as close as possible.
One of the number one ROI home improvements is a minor kitchen remodel. Other top projects include a second-story addition, a bathroom remodel, a bathroom addition, a family room addition, a master suite addition and a major kitchen remodel.

Remember that if you decide on very large improvement projects you may out build the neighbourhood. In other words, you will never get your money back because selling prices in your neighbourhood are too low and people will not purchase your home for what it is worth.

Now are you ready to do it yourself or should you hire a contractor? If you can do a professional job then you can save costs by doing it yourself, but if your job will be less than professional you can hurt the resale cost of your home, or hurt yourself. You may also cost yourself extra money in repairing what you attempted to do, so think this option over carefully.
