How do Home Renovations Affect Your Home Value?

 

Contrary to what many people think the ROI isn’t always what you might expect. There are three ways to value the payback on your home renovations.

First there is the value the Reno adds to the potential selling price of your property.

Secondly there is value it adds to your enjoyment of your home.

Thirdly, the value of maintaining the worth of your property.

Thinking of upgrading your plumbing for example? This would help maintain the worth of your property or possibly add to the selling price depending on what kind of plumbing you have to start with. However, you likely won’t get back the money you spend dollar to dollar.

Bathroom – renovation or additions with quality of materials and workmanship, again consistent
with the homes and the area. Payback is 75%-100%.
